To track the unzip progress, you would probably need to use `unzip -l` first to get the total size of all files. And then do the 
actual decompression verbosely with `unzip -v` in a Process so you can read the output in the Process' Read event. Provided the 
data you need is provided by `unzip`, this would allow you to calculate the progress as each file is processed.

Take a look at the manual page for "unzip" and possibly "zipinfo" as well; and also https://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb/process.
