this appears to fix the issue here:

I just noticed one or two other issues, so I'll leave at this for tonight:


-----------

(* Caution: the last statement in the try block deletes the zip file without trashing it *)

to unzip_and_delete(z)
try
set p to quoted form of z's POSIX path
set n to paragraph 2 of (do shell script "zipinfo " & p)
set n to n's text ((offset of ":" in n) + 4) thru -(1 + ((n ends with "/") as integer))
set d to (do shell script "dirname " & p) & "/"
set f to d & n as POSIX file
tell application "Finder" to if f exists then error "The " & item f's class & " \"" & n & "\" already exists."
do shell script "unzip -qo " & p & " -x __MACOSX/* -d " & quoted form of d
do shell script "rm " & p (* delete the zip file without trashing *)
on error e
display dialog e buttons {"Cancel"} default button 1
end try
end unzip_and_delete


unzip_and_delete(choose file of type "com.pkware.zip-archive" without invisibles)

G'night, folks.
