Subject:	What directory to unzip what to, of the djgpp .zip archive

  I have downloaded everything in oak.oakland.edu:pub/msdos/djgpp/, and in the
course of unzipping it all I have found that:-

  (1) The whole lot together occupy over 100 megabytes.
  (2) bccgrx12.zip fsdb091a.zip fsdb104.zip qddvx102.zip qdlib200.zip
qdtkt200.zip sblaster.zip haven't got `manifest' files.
  (3) I had to archive some of the files onto subdirectories to avoid name
clashes and scattering of matter among other matter. Here is my .BAT file that
I used to unzip all the djgpp archive files in alphabetical order of name
(.... = where I have omitted parts here for brevity):-

cd c:\djgpp
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\aeasy102.zip
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\aecur102.zip
  .....
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\flx247sr.zip

REM CONTRIB\LIBGRX\103_READ.ME & CONTRIB\LIBGRX\1st_READ.ME both occur in
REM both cbgrd103.zip & cbgrf103.zip, but the duplications have the same
REM lengths and dates and are probably the same files.

REM These next 2 .zips had to be unzipped into subdirectories to avoid files
REM getting scattered about the main directory c:\djgpp\*.* :-
md c:\djgpp\fsdb091
cd c:\djgpp\fsdb091
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\fsdb091a.zip
md c:\djgpp\fsdb104
cd c:\djgpp\fsdb104
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\fsdb104.zip
REM fsdb091a.zip & fsdb104.zip have some different files with the same name,
REM so they must be unzipped into <different> subdirectories.
cd c:\djgpp
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\gas23bn.zip
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\gas23dc.zip
  .....
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\qddvx102.zip
REM Similarly here, else the contents of the next 2 .zips would get scattered
REM about in several immediate subdirectories of c:\djgpp\ :-
md c:\djgpp\contrib\dvx2
cd c:\djgpp\contrib\dvx2
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\qdlib200.zip
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\qdtkt200.zip
cd c:\djgpp
REM If I had put CD C:\DJGPP\CONTRIB\DVX here, many filenames would clash with
REM names of files in qddvx102.zip
  .....
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\txi310sr.zip

REM If I don't put this next cdir in, unzip386 tries to unzip a file called
REM C:\DJGPP\EMU386 when there is already a directory called C:\DJGPP\EMU386,
REM and complains loudly.

md c:\djgpp\emu112
cd c:\djgpp\emu112
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\wmemu112.zip
cd c:\djgpp

REM these maint updates must be unzipped last:-
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\grx103m1.zip
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\dj112m1.zip
c:\gcczip\unzip386 c:\gcczip\dj112m2.zip
