       | Wonder why they don't put it on github... I feel MUCH more

       | than I do downloading and extracting a .zip archive from a random
       | website.

         | Github is a gigantic pile of javascript that has to execute on

         | `Unzip` doesn't execute anything. If you're really paranoid,
         | use an `unzip` tool written in Rust:
