How can I output the comment archive of a zip file? Basically I want to copy the zip archive comment to the clipboard. <pre class="prettyprint"><code>zip -z file </code></pre> prompts me to enter a new comment, how can I only output it, without prompt?

You need to use <code>unzip</code> and not <code>zip</code> to do so. <pre class="prettyprint"><code>unzip -z file </code></pre> will output the comments saved in the zip file.
