There are several ways to do this:
a) Use zlib, the library which defines zip files. It's not too
complicated, and definitely the best solution. (www.zlib.org)
b) You can also use an NSTask to run the command line utility 'unzip'.
This is probably your best solution if it's a one time thing, but it
will slow you down a bit. (/usr/bin/unzip)
c) I'd imagine that the StuffIt Engine can unzip files, but I do not
know anything about it's API, or any requirements placed on it's use by
Aladdin. I'd suggest searching their site.

There may be other methods, but those are the ones I can think of. Good
luck!

Quick question. My app needs to unzip a bunch of zip files. Is there a
Unix
utility which I can call or can I send an Apple Event to the StuffIt
Engine
which comes with OS X? If so, how do I proceed? The zip format is an
older
one, method 8 - implode/explode, I think. I do not need to zip, just
unzip.
Thanks,
Keith
