Unzipping files with the same names but in very many different folders..Aim to unzip them and rename

I dont mind renaming them to the creation date. They are text files.

I tried option above Lohith..
Code:
for I in `cat FILE_LIST`
do 
cp ${I} ${I//\//__}
gunzip ${I//\//__}

done
but
Code:
cp ${I} ${I//\//__}

creates the files with the same name while i want them with new random names.

Smilie

I was trying this but the mv cmd error: cannot access file

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
Home=/var/tmp
cd $Home
for zip in `find $Home -depth -name "*.zip"`
do 
file="$(unzip -l -qq "${zip}" | sed 's/.*:[0-9]\+[[:space:]]*//')" 
newname=$(echo "${file}" | sed 's/ /_/g')
mv {$newname} $Home
done

Anyone Kindly.

NAME
zipnote - write the comments in zipfile to stdout, edit comments and rename files in zipfile SYNOPSIS
zipnote [-w] [-b path] [-h] [-v] [-L] zipfile ARGUMENTS
zipfile Zipfile to read comments from or edit. OPTIONS
-w Write comments to a zipfile from stdin (see below). -b path Use path for the temporary zip file. -h Show a short help. -v Show version information. -L Show software license. DESCRIPTION
zipnote writes the comments in a zipfile to stdout. This is the default mode. A second mode allows updating the comments in a zipfile as well as allows changing the names of the files in the zipfile. These modes are described below. EXAMPLES
To write all comments in a zipfile to stdout use for example zipnote foo.zip > foo.tmp This writes all comments in the zipfile foo.zip to the file foo.tmp in a specific format. If desired, this file can then be edited to change the comments and then used to update the zipfile. zipnote -w foo.zip < foo.tmp The names of the files in the zipfile can also be changed in this way. This is done by following lines like "@ name" in the created temporary file (called foo.tmp here) with lines like "@=newname" and then using the -w option as above. BUGS
The temporary file format is rather specific and zipnote is rather picky about it. It should be easier to change file names in a script. Does not yet support large (> 2 GB) or split archives. SEE ALSO
