No. AFAIK the expand/compress progs store data in a zip-like for
(called MS_ZIP in the M$'s site). This must be a proprietary slightly
modified zip...

Well, it's never too much to try (I did before I asked):

$ unzip wc.tx_ 
Archive:  wc.tx_
  End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip:  can't find zipfile directory in one of wc.tx_ or
wc.tx_.zip, and can't find wc.tx_.ZIP, period.

Or even:

$ zcat wc.tx_

zcat: wc.tx_: not in gzip format

I suspect this is a simple zip entry, without the file table info
(i.e. a "zipstream", no file information), much like the gzip
style...

Isn't unzip from the utils section what you are looking for ?

As a last resort, you can run the original program from within dosemu.

expand for UNIX

1998-02-24 Thread Luiz Otavio L. Zorzella

Is there any program where I can extract files from that MS-DOS
expand/compress format under UNIX?
