I am looking for a simple Windows utility to list the contents
of ZIP files; extract selected files; and optionally compress
files.
 
It would be nice if the utility allowed me to File - Open a
ZIP file, then display the contents in a child-window (multiple
document support). It would be nice if I could then Shift/Ctrl -
click on listed files and select File - Extract. Providing
an Options/Preferences menu (e.g. default destination directory,
confirmation options, etc.) would be really nice. Herein one might
find the tradition -switches. 

A File - Print
option would be reasonable to expect, if it used the Print Manager 
(i.e. redirect print to a file, etc.)
 
Given all of the shareware ZIP files for Windows I suspect such 
a beasty exists, it simply hasn't jumped out at me while browsing
through cica.cica.indiana.edu et al.

thanks in advance!
