unar v1.10.1, a tool for extracting the contents of archive files.
Usage: unar [options] archive [files ...]
Available options:
-output-directory (-o) <string> The directory to write the contents of the archive to. Defaults to the current directory. If set to a single
dash (-), no files will be created, and all data will be output to stdout.
-force-overwrite (-f) 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.
-force-rename (-r) Always rename files when a file to be unpacked already exists on disk.
-force-skip (-s) Always skip files when a file to be unpacked already exists on disk.
-force-directory (-d) 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.
-no-directory (-D) Never create a containing directory for the contents of the unpacked archive.
-password (-p) <string> The password to use for decrypting protected archives.
-encoding (-e) <encoding name> 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.
-password-encoding (-E) <name> 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.
-indexes (-i) Instead of specifying the files to unpack as filenames or wildcard patterns, specify them as indexes, as
output by lsar.
-no-recursion (-nr) Do not attempt to extract archives contained in other archives. For instance, when unpacking a .tar.gz file,
only unpack the .gz file and not its contents.
-copy-time (-t) Copy the file modification time from the archive file to the containing directory, if one is created.
-forks (-k) <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".
-quiet (-q) Run in quiet mode.
-version (-v) Print version and exit.
-help (-h) Display this information.
