extracting .z01 .z02 ... .zip files

On a linux system, how do you restore a zip archive contained in the following set of files:
bigData.z01
bigData.z02
bigData.z03
bigData.z04
bigData.zip

There is no windows system at this location. Aparently, on widows you can restore this with WinZip.

seeing as these look like they were split with something like lxsplit ( BUT NOT LXSPLIT )
it is the wrong naming

you need to join them with what ever was used to split them

however you might give this a try
1) put *.z01 to *.z04 in the SAME folder and run

Code:

unzip bigData.z04

4 ? might? also grab 3,2,and 1 and extract it to /bigData
