Yes it works,
I've put the following command in a shell script:
/bin/sh -c "cd $(pwd) && unzip -o -d $(basename $1 .zip)  $1"

named the script "uziptest.sh" and moved it to "/usr/local/bin".
Calling "uziptest.sh foobar.zip" works ok (provided that there is a
"foobar.zip" file in the current directory)

Funny enough the service menu with the command
/bin/sh -c "cd %d && tar xfz %u"
for tar-gzipped files works ok ... go figure.

I'm puzzled by this... like I said this service menu worked just fine in
3.1.2, something must have changed or in 3.1.3 or in my environment that is
causing this to fail, I just have no idea what.


Regards,
Luis Neves
