    This will extract the file named \code{file} from the zip archive,
    if possible, and write it in a temporary location.
}
\details{
    The file will be extracted if it is in the archive and any required
    \code{unzip} utility is available. It will probably be extracted to
    the directory used by \code{tempfile}.
}
