7zip

Hello,

I have to extract a file from commandline with 7zip (or other free zip application) with the next structure:

MAIN_DIR\
         ---a
         ---b
         ---SUBDIR\
                   ---c

I need the output structure to be the same but skipping the first folder so I end with:

---a
---b
---SUBDIR\
         ---c

Can this be done with 7zip or other free commandline zip extractor?

Thanks in advance.
