64-bit unzip for HP-UX

A rebuilt unzip package for HP-UX, created to handle extraction jobs that produce files larger than 2 GB.

What it is

A packaged 64-bit build of unzip for HP-UX.

Why it existed

A roughly 200 MB zip file expanded into a 3.7 GB log file, which required a 64-bit capable unzip binary.

Why it stayed online

It was useful enough that it made sense to leave it available for anyone else who ran into the same HP-UX limitation.

Context

Small tool, specific problem

The original page said it plainly: a real unzip task on HP-UX produced a file too large for the normal build, so a 64-bit version was compiled with HP's C compiler and shared "as a service to the rest of the world." This page keeps that same spirit, just with a cleaner front end.
