tar -zxvf <tarball-file>
in a linux machine : tar -cvf FileOrDirectory.tar FileOrDirectory # or to gzip it at the same time... tar -czvf FileOrDirectory.tgz FileOrDirectory
The usual way of copying or moving directories is to use the tar command. The resulting tar file (called a tarball) can also be compressed to save time in moving it to another system. To create a tar file for export, use a command such as: cd directory tar cvf export.tar . This will create a file called export.tar that contains all of the elements of that directory. You could also compress that tar file by: gzip export.tar Which creates an export.tar.gz file. Then, copy or move the file to another place or system. To import it: gunzip export tar if the file was compressed, then use tar to extract the contents: cd directory tar xvf export tar
tar is one of the basic commands in Unix. tar command in unix is used for achriving purpose, you can create archive, update or extract from archieve using tar command in unix.you can also create compressed archieve by combining bzip2 and gzip along with unix tar command
The 'tar' utility is not usually used to install packages; it would consist of a source package that has to be configured, compiled, and then installed. The tar file you receive usually is in a compressed format as well.The sequence of events with a tar file (sometimes called a tarball) is to do the following:Uncompress the tar file if it is compressedExtract all of the files into a directory with 'tar xvf filename'Run the ./configure command in the root directory of the package if it existsRun the 'make' command on the resultRun the 'make install' command if everything compiled and linked successfully.
You don't. The 'tar' command has nothing to do with the 'vi' editor; it creates an archive files and the vi editor modifies the content of a file.
In linux command line : tar -zxvf /path_to_your_file/filename.tar.gz
tar -xvf file.tar in the terminal.
Without more specific information, this is a difficult question to answer. Extracting a file refers to the process of taking it out of a compressed format (*.zip, *.rar, *.tar, etc.) and placing it in a new folder by itself (or, more likely, as a group of files). For example, the terminal command tar -xvf filename.tar would unpack/extract the file "filename.tar" When you want to extract file, use b1 free of charge archiver
Transfer tar files in binary mode.WARNING: some ftp clients go back to ascii mode when you enter an ls or dir command. To be safe, always use the binary command before getting a binary file.
It is a tar file file compressed using BZIP. "Bzipped-tar-file"
pros they have alot of oil in them cons there expensive to extract , there hard to extract
Tar sand can be processed to extract petroleum, just like the kind that you get from oil wells.
