        None of the unzips on any of the systems to which I have access
support a -M switch.  Is that something new in the lastest version,
presumably for more-like output?

        That's 'cuz it's a quickie hack, done wrong. :) :)  Follow the
model for a lynxprog URL in LYGetFile.c.  Also, setup up a configurable
VIEW_ZIP_PATH, so people than define it appropriately for their systems,

#define VIEW_ZIP_PATH "/foo/blah/unzip -v -M %s"
/* define VIEW_ZIP_PATH "/foo/blah/unzip -v %s | most" */
