I can see file files but  they do not run on the amiga...but if I unzip them on the PC game will run on pc what did i do wrong here? it looks like a lot of amiga files or down loads are in zip format..I'm using workbench 3.1  on a hard drive.

I have downloaded  the game EAB file server so I know I have a good copy.
What Is a good  unzip program to use with workbench 3.1 ?
Do all .zip get unziped through a CLI shell? I want to learn how to do this but no manuals and I have lots of question and would like examples on how to do this
Thx
