NAME

       unar - extract archive file contents

SYNOPSIS

       unar [OPTION]... ARCHIVE [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       Extract FILEs or the contents of ARCHIVE.

OPTIONS

       -o, -output-directory DIRECTORY
              The  directory  to  write  the contents of the archive to.  Defaults to the current
              directory.

       -f, -force-overwrite
              Always overwrite files when a file to be  unpacked  already  exists  on  disk.   By
              default, the program asks the user if possible, otherwise skips the file.

       -r, -force-rename
              Always rename files when a file to be unpacked already exists on disk.

       -s, -force-skip
              Always skip files when a file to be unpacked already exists on disk.

       -d, -force-directory
              Always  create a containing directory for the contents of the unpacked archive.  By
              default, a directory is created if there is more than one top-level file or folder.

       -D, -no-directory
              Never create a containing directory for the contents of the unpacked archive.

       -p, -password PASSWORD
              The password to use for decrypting protected archives.

       -e, -encoding ENCODING
              The encoding to use for filenames in the archive, when it is  not  known.   If  not
              specified,  the  program  attempts to auto-detect the encoding used.  Use "help" or
              "list" as the argument to give a listing of all supported encodings.

       -E, -password-encoding ENCODING
              The encoding to use for the password for the archive, when it is not known.  If not
              specified,  then  either  the  encoding  given by the -encoding option or the auto-
              detected encoding is used.

       -i, -indexes
              Instead of specifying the files to list as filenames or wildcard patterns,  specify
              them as indexes, as output by lsar.

       -nr, -no-recursion
              Do  not attempt to extract archives contained in other archives. For instance, when
              unpacking a .tar.gz file, only unpack the .tar file and not its contents.

       -t, -copy-time
              Copy the file modification time from the archive file to the containing  directory,
              if one is created.

       -k, -forks visible|hidden|skip
              How  to  handle  Mac OS resource forks.  visible creates AppleDouble files with the
              extension ".rsrc", hidden creates AppleDouble files with the prefix "._", and  skip
              discards all resource forks.  Defaults to visible.

       -q, -quiet
              Run in quiet mode.

       -h, -help
              Display help information.
