- I know from personal experience that zoo201.ttp allows redirection of output
- to a file (as in zoo -list ZOOFILE > LOGFILE) and creates directories as
- needed (as in zoo -restore ZOOFILE). It seems we have gone over this ground
- before, with a great deal of heat and little light.
-
- Please give us exactly ONE name of a widely available zoo file which does
- not unpack the way you want it to. Please say what kind of output redirection
- you want to do (if it isn't UNIX-oid > or | redirection, an example of lharc
- commands which did what you mean would be helpful). If your example doesn't
- create directories properly with "zoo -restore" or "zoo e//" that would be
- helpful in explaining your complaint.
-
- This is a request for one or at most two examples. Please be helpful by
- giving exactly that.
