NAME

unp - unpack everything

SYNOPSIS

unp [OPTION]... [FILE]... -- [TOOL-OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

file: compressed file(s) to expand/extract

Use -- [ ARGUMENTS ] to pass arguments to external programs, eg. some tar options: unp fastgl.tgz xmnt.tgz -- -C /tmp

OPTIONS

	-f Continue even if program availability checks fail or directory collision occurs
	-u Special helper mode.

For most archive types: a) create directory <filename without suffix>/, b) extract contents there.

For Debian/Ubuntu packages: a) extract data.tar.gz after each operation in local directory, b) extract control.tar.gz into control/<package_version_arch>/.

	-U Smart mode, acts like -u (see above) if archive contains multiple elements but if there is only one file/directory element then it’s stored in the current directory.
	-s Show the list of supported formats
	-v More verbosity
	--version Show the tool version
	-h Show this help
