Almost. Once you realize the way Zoo looks at files, it becomes easy to figure
out what to type on the command line.

Assume name is           Command line to extract all files
-----------------------------------------------------------
foo.zoo                  zoo e// foo
                         zoo e// foo.zoo

foo.1.zoo                zoo e// foo.1.zoo

foo.1                    zoo e// foo.1

All of the above will work. If the filename has no extension at all, there is
no command that will extract the files, since zoo will add '.zoo' to the
filename argument and look for that.  If there is an extension, and you specify
it, Zoo will not add '.zoo' to the name.
