Hello! I am writing a script, which involves unzipping some files. I would have to unzip 4 different zip-files from some directory, and I would need to unzip them to the directory, which would have the same name in it as the original zip-file, i.e. I would like to run something like "ls *.zip", have each file name recorded in some variable, and do a loop like "unzip $filename[$i] -d $filename[$i].unzipped/". Can someone help me with the code? How can I put the results of a command to a variable? Cheers, Constantine.
