`zcat` does not accept a file argument on macOS #460

Closed postmodern closed 11 months ago

It appears that macOS's version of zcat does not accept a PATH argument. Instead, the .gz file to read must be redirected into zcat. The extract function should be changed to use zcat < "$archive" | ... instead.

We don't actually use zcat directly.
