Re: Deleting

Hi,

'man unzip' gives you the manual of unzip, this is stored during installation of unzip.
To find the command 'unzip' the user-shell needs the path.
This information the shell gets when starting.
It reads the file /etc/PATH, then this path can be enlarged by - for example - path=$path:
In your case you should add the path '/usr/local/bin' to /etc/PATH.

To check if shell knows a command use 'which ' then you'll see the path where shell finds the command.

> UNZIP(1L) Info-ZIP UNZIP(1L)

This suggests that the UnZip "man" page was
installed in the usual place, /usr/local/man,
which suggests that /usr/local/man is on the
user's MANPATH. If that's true, and if
/usr/local/bin is not on the user's PATH,
then I'd say that someone should straighten
out the user's shell start-up script(s), like
.profile, or .cshrc or .login, depending on
the user's shell. These things are pretty
basic, so if this wasn't obvious, you should
find a good introduction to UNIX, and do some
reading.

A real UnZip program works much better on a
typical Zip archive than gzip does.
