Simple debug problem.

DIM a AS String
a = "unzip -u " & Chr$(34) & User.Home & "/.GamCat/GamCat.zip" & Chr
$(34) & " -d " & Chr$(34) & User.Home & "/.GamCat/" & Chr$(34) 

Freeze the IDE and look at value of a:

unzip -u "/home/minthaka/.GamCat/GamCat.zip" -d
"/home/minthaka/.GamCat/"

Notice anything different with your intended script that works?:

Shell "unzip -u /home/minthaka/.GamCat/GamCat.zip -d
/home/minthaka/.GamCat/" Wait

Lots of unnecessary Chr$(34) inserted everywhere for no reason!!
