Thanks for the reply but I've tried that and other variations to no success :( I've tried including the drive names and all kinds but I just get an error with bad parameter. The file has been unzipped on my QL too.

If you have a game file (curses_dat) in the same directory as the zip executable, then to have zip read the curses_dat file and play it, the command line is: exec zip;"curses_dat" This will open a new window and start the game. Zip is able to read games that were built on other platforms ( but only games using zcode versions 3 & 5). I wrote a review for this many years ago for IQLR and luckily it was still on a hard drive.
