not related to emacs directly but perhaps emacs can provide help...

i got a zip'd folder from windows. After unzipping, all chars in
chinese file names becomes garbled.

is there a way to correct this?

(as far as i know, windows file systemis utf16 and mac is utf8...

am not sure why zip utility doesn't contain the file name encoding
used...

i guess the prob is to get the raw binary of file names then re-
interpret it...  but not sure how to get the raw binary)

Thanks.

Try The Unarchiver.app. It can detect encodings of file names in zip
archives. I don't know how emacs can help here though. :-)
