Hi again. I hope someone can tall me how to get unzip to work. I have dl a kompressed file from here "www.info-zip.org" and extracted it to my home directory so I now have a directory called something like unzip-5.5. But (offcourse) the command unzip dosent work jet. But what should I do next?

I have transfered a zip file from a windows pc and that is why I need the unzip function.

I believe unzip comes with dsl in the first place. Try opening an Xterminal and typing

unzip mydl.zip

replacing "mydl.zip" with your file's name.

unzip with no file or options prints out a nice little summary of the command line swtches.
