Sounds like you're doing this:

	zoo e file.zoo

Which extracts files into the current directory.  You want to do this:

	zoo e// file.zoo

This will extract into subdirectories (from the current dir) like you want.
Also, try the "zoo l file.zoo" line to ensure that the file indeed does
create subdirectories -- otherwise you may want to make a subdirectory and
move the zoo file into it before extracting...
