That worked fine on my sytem.
Different versions of unzip?
Mine is version 5.50.
Example: unzip ttools.zip -x */*
Seems elegant, and apparently works with both pkunzip and unzip.

Yeah, I guess if you are using NetRexx the loop and maybe some other
stuff would have to be recoded.
I just rewrote the shebang line on my Linux copy of parse, and it seems
to work fine with object rexx, so add that to Classic OS/2 and Regina.

They simply aren't part of the parse tool, only if you choose to use them.
