   Hello g00r00!

   I'm currently using the following:   
      
          Active ³ Yes   
       Extension ³ ZIP   
              OS ³ Linux   
     Description ³ Info-ZIP Utilities   
        Pack Cmd ³ zip -qj9 "%1" %2   
      Unpack Cmd ³ unzip -oqqjC "%1" "%2" -d "%3"   
        View Cmd ³   
      
   (Notice the "%1" and "%3" but %2; speaking of quoting or not quoting "%3".)   
      
   It seems to be working just fine.   
      
   From the (built-in) archive viewer, I could navigate inside a ZIP containing a   
   subdirectory and some files, and it viewed (= unpacked and displayed) them   
   just fine.   
      
   An strace looks fine as well:   
      
   write(17, "2021.08.05 22:22:14 Executing: unzip -oqqjC \"/mnt/bb   
   /mystic/files/local/uploads/test.zip\" \"subdir/test2.txt\" -d \   
   /home/bbs/mystic/temp2/\" > /dev/null 2>&1\n", 156) = 156   
   close(17)                               = 0   
   fork(strace: Process 2298 attached   
   )                                  = 2298   
   [pid  2298] execve("/bin/sh", ["/bin/sh", "-c", "unzip -oqqjC \"   
   mnt/bbs/mystic/files/local/uploads/test.zip\" \"subdir/test2.txt\" -d   
   \"/home/bbs/mystic/temp2/\" > /dev/null 2>&1"], ["LANG=en_US.UTF-8",    
      
   Best regards
