Perl script to unzip a .zip archive into a subdirectory, recreating the tree recursively as it goes.

$zip = new chilkat::CkZip();

	# exampleData\
	# exampleData\hamlet.xml
	# exampleData\123\
	# exampleData\aaa\
	# exampleData\123\hello.txt
	# exampleData\aaa\banner.gif

	# unzipped.

	# working directory (if it does not already exist) and unzip into it.
