Problems writing bash script to unzip files
I'm getting the following errors when I try to write a script to unzip some zip files. When I use the free trial copy of the commerical winzip program, however, they work fine. When I use -l or -t on unzip it indicates no errors. When I use the -o switch interactively from the bash command line it works fine. These errors only occur from the bash script.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong (besides using windows)?

zip2st

ZIP2ST(1)							 Hatari utilities							 ZIP2ST(1)

NAME

       zip2st - a program for converting .zip archives to Atari .st disk images

SYNOPSIS

       zip2st srcname.zip [dstname.st]

DESCRIPTION

       zip2st can be used to convert a .zip file to a .st disk image.

       If  the	destination filename is not given, use the name of the .zip file, without the extension, and save it in the current working direc-
       tory.

       Any single directories (other than 'auto') at root of the zip archive are traversed down to avoid adding redundant intermediate directories
       from the zip file to the generated disk image.

       The .st disk image is a raw disk image, and can be written to a floppy using dd(1) or converted to .msa disk image with hmsa(1).

       The contents of the uncompressed zip file need to be smaller than 2.88MB (the largest floppy image size supported by Hatari).

SEE ALSO

       hmsa(1), atari-hd-image(1), hatari(1), unzip(1), mtools(1), dd(1).
