Introduction

Unp is a small perl script which makes extraction of any archive files (see FileCompression) a bit easier. It support several compressors and archiver programs, chooses the right one(s) automatically and extracts one or more files in one go.

Installation

sudo apt-get install unp

Usage

Method 1 (unpack all archives in a directory):

unp *.*

Method 2 (unpack, for example, all .rar archives in a directory):

unp *.rar

Method 3 (unpack 1 archive):

unp archivefile

Method 4 (unpack several archives at the same time):

unp archivefile1 archivefile 2

Problem

It doesn't extract files from RAR archives with full path!
