You mean *.zip files created by DOS/Windows compression
programs such as pkzip? They have nothing to do with glint.
There's a Unix utility called "unzip" that is able to
extract them.
[root@borg vlad]# rpm -q zip
zip-2.1-1
[root@borg vlad]# rpm -q unzip
unzip-5.12-5
Basic usage is:
unzip <filename.zip>
and it gets extracted in your curent working directory.

Core is a memory image of a program when it crashes,
it's useful for debugging with gdb. It's safe to
remove core files.
Now, I have a question. What's "Dolt-lummox"? It's
not in my dictionaries.
