 Thanks for the review!

 Sounds good. Keeping it as `tmp-dzip` was probably too... timid. I've
 named the variable `TEMPDIR` in the v2 patch, on the off chance that
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMPDIR might somehow affect `unzip` or
 `zip`.

 The commands have also been tweaked to fail early (instead of late) when
 `$1` has not been given.

 > Also, shouldn't this line: `(cd tmp_dzip; dzip.sh
 ./"$ZIPFILE_BASENAME")`
 > include a dot like so: `(cd tmp_dzip; dzip.sh ./"$ZIPFILE_BASENAME" .)`

 Those are equivalent: The first calls `find …` (because `"$@"` in the
 absence of arguments expands to nothing at all), while the second calls
 `find . …`. But using a consistent style is better, so v2 has the explicit
 dot.
