XWIM
Do What I Mean Extractor
Continuing the emacs tradition of "Do What I Mean" tools, dtrx is a replacement
for the excellent, but unfortunately unmaintained,
dtrx. xwim is a command line tool that
targets two problems with archives:
- Command line tools for extracting archives are often archaic and differ considerably between formats
- Inconsiderately packaged archives tend to spill their content over the directory they are extracted to
Usage
Invoking xwim is as simple as:
xim archive.tar.gz
This will extract the archive archive.tar.gz to the current folder. If the
archive contains a single root folder named like the archive, it is just
extracted as is. Otherwise xwim first creates a folder named after the archive
and extracts the contents there.
Examples
Single root folder named after the archive
archive.tar.gz
|
-- archive/
|
-- file.txt
|
-- file2.txt
xwim will just extract the archive to the current directory.
Multiple files/folders in archive root
archive.tar.gz
|
-- archive/
| |
| -- file.txt
|
-- file2.txt
xwim will create a folder archive in the current directory and extract the
archive contents there.
Supported formats
xwim is indifferent to the actual extraction backend. However, currently only
libarchive is supported. xwim supports most formats
supported by libarchive:
- 7-zip: 7z, 7zip
- zip: jar, zip
- bzip2: bz2, bzip2
- gzip: gz, gzip
- xzip: xz
- rar: rar
- tar with compression: tgz, tar.gz, tar.bz2, tar.xz
