- update unzip docs like zip/gzip; note in BUGS section about MS-DOS "fail"
lockup on diskette errors; [text]/[binary] significance; "replace foo?"
options; archive naming conventions in COPYING;
- see if MS-DOS MSC version prints zipfile comments OK under DOS 6.x (5.1j bug?)
- finish INSTALL file: edit Makefile for manext, MANDIR, BINDIR and "make
install"; VMS: foreign symbol; MS-DOS, OS/2: move to directory in path; etc.

o extract-to-dir capability
DONE (for Unix, OS/2, MS-DOS, VMS, Amiga, Atari, NT, Mac, Human68k?).
o add wildcard zipfiles
DONE for Unix, OS/2, MS-DOS, VMS, Amiga, Atari, NT, Mac(?), Human68k?.
o incorporate zipinfo
DONE, aside from moving code around and finding way to store
strings in far memory for small-memory machines.
o clean up unzip.h
DONE.
o rewrite to use fwrite/no outbuf
DONE.
o replace EOL conversion code and make text/binary conversion automatic
DONE.
for 5.2:
o add Unix extra field (GMT modification and status-change times)
next
o check NEXTBYTE for EOF in crypt.c, funzip.c and explode.c, too
next
o experiment with self-extracting unzip: deflated/stored only, suppress
"extra bytes" message, use argv[0] with path search, remove do_wild, etc.
soon
o use configure script in combination with Unix Makefile
soon
o rewrite to use fread/fseek/no ReadByte/etc. [eventually: test
write(bytes) vs. fwrite(words), especially on Crays/Alphas]
soon; ReadByte gone already.
o incorporate new backfill version of inflate()
next after fread/fseek/ReadByte
o add multi-part zipfile handling
next after that
o add ONLY_ZIPINFO compilation for 16-bit compiles
later
o add case insensitivity to file matching on case-insensitive
OS's (the whole bit with single quotes which we discussed a
few months back)
later
o add testing of extra fields (if have CRC)
later
o change all output so goes through configurable routines (msg(),
warn(), err()) for simpler GUI interfacing; use to move all
strings to far memory under small-memory OS's, copying back to
local memory (slide[] buffer?) only when ready to print
later
o rewrite to allow use as a filter
way, way later...
o add option to search zipfile contents for a string and print the
results? ("zipgrep" option--e.g., unzip -g or unzip -S) (easy for
fixed strings, hard for wildcards/true regex's)
way, way later, if at all...
o add -y "display symlinks" option to zipinfo?
who knows
o add "in-depth" option to zipinfo? (check local headers against
central, etc.)--make it a better debugging tool (or just create
zipfix)
who knows
o ports underway: Acorn, AOS/VS, ...
