I want to extract the files with the extension .txt. I use this command,
$ unzip newfile.zip newdir/*.txt
This command extract the files,
newdir/file100.txt
newdir/file1.txt
but not the file, newdir/dir1/file11.txt
So how to extract it?

I have these folders and files:
.
├── a
│ └── file1a.txt
├── b
│ ├── file1b.txt
│ └── file2b.txt
├── c
│ ├── file1c.txt
│ └── file2c.txt
├── emptydoc
└── file2.txt
I got all of them compressed to compressed.zip.
If I want to unzip text files only, I run this command unzip compressed.zip *.txt and I only get the .txt files unzipped
unzip compressed.zip *.txt
