To unpack the archive in the form *. tar.gz use the command:

tar xvfz *. tar.gz

Used in the command keys

• x - allows you to retrieve files from the archive.
• v - concludes tar detail. This means that the screen will be displayed all found in the archive files. If this option is omitted, the output of the processing will be limited.
• f - is a mandatory option. Without it, tar tries to use tape instead of the archive file.
• z - lets you handle archive, compressed gzip (with extension. gz). If you omit this option, tar will report an error. Conversely, this option should not be used for uncompressed files.
