As you already recognized, Info-zip utility does not support '--' flag. This is not a bug but by design. It can easily treats the file name beginning with '-' as follows. touch -- -d -x zip ./--abc.zip ./-d ./-x rm -- -d -x unzip ./--abc.zip '\-d' -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp> -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
