Hello,
I have never used -z filename when I used ext. However, to do what you want to do, you could simple make a MESH file that only includes elements that have the material name you want assigned to them, and delete all the others (you need to do this only in block ELEME - don't worry about the CONNE block). Under unix, you could use grep to accomplish this easily. Then take this MESH file to run ext and extract files for Tecplot. You would need to repeat that procedure for each material.
Try it.
