How to convert non-utf8 encoding to utf-8 encoding during unzip

compressionencodingzip

I have the same problem which described here.

The only difference is I need to do this in MacOS.

Basically, all files are encoded in non-utf8 and zipped on Windows. When I unzip it on MacOS, they won't be readable at all. I need to convert the encoding to utf-8 during unzip.

I tried the command unzip -O GB18030 gb18030.zip which does not work on MacOS. I think it might because the unzip command in MacOS does not have the option -O.

I figured out The Unarchiver.app works.
