Hi Julian,

Me too usually! Although in the [including recent] past I have done it 
with the superb [best ever WPS-aware papplication] FastBack/2, which has 
the advantage over info-zip of being able to use a GUI [three of them, 
IIRC] to pick very complex selective mixed directories/files to restore 
to HDD, which would not fit into the OS/2 command-line as arguments - 
that seems to run out of steam at about 270 character length, IIRC.
