   Were you trying to run zoo from the desktop and do you have TOS 1.0?
   The TOS 1.0 desktop converts all TTP parameters to uppercase. So,
   instead of zoo seeing a -x option, it sees -X which it doesn't

Or maybe you could try:
  zoo x// d:\term\download\sozobon1.zoo

(i.e., without the {}[]).
if you are using some comand shell, and not the desktop, maybe you
should use / instead of \ in the pathname...
