Extracting .zip files with Python

[Ray Parrish]

Hello,

Here I am stuck again... 8-) Here's my code as ran in the interpreter, 
and the errors -

 >>> ThisZip = zipfile.ZipFile("/home/ray/logs/IIS/ex100102.zip", "r")
 >>> List = ThisZip.namelist()
 >>> List[0]
'ex100102.log'
 >>> ArchiveName = List[0]
 >>> ThisZip.extract(ArchiveName,"/home/ray/logs/IIS/" + ArchiveName)
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: ZipFile instance has no attribute 'extract'

 >>> FileHandle = ThisZip.open(ArchiveName,"r")
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: ZipFile instance has no attribute 'open'

I think the documents actually said that .extract() was a Python 2.6 
thing, and since I'm on Python 2.5 I guess it doesn't have that, but it 
should have .open() as it was listed above the 2.6 version seperation in 
the docs.

Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong, and give me some pointers 
on extracting .zip files with the Python zipfile class?

Thanks, Ray Parrish
