How Linux can decompress. zip and. rar files under Windows

Linux comes with the unzip command to decompress compressed files in ZIP format under Windows.

How unzip is not installed, can be installed under Yum: yum-y Install unzip

Unzip command

Syntax:unzip [options] Compress file name. zip

The meanings of each option are:

-X file list to unzip the file, but not include the specified file file.

-V View the compressed Files directory, but do not press.

The-t test file has no damage, but does not understand the pressure.

The-D directory unlocks the compressed file to the specified directory.

-Z displays only annotations for compressed files.

-N does not overwrite files that already exist.

-O overwrites files that already exist and does not require user confirmation.

-j does not recreate the directory structure of the document, extracting all the files into the same directory.

Example 1: Unzip the compressed file Text.zip in the current directory.

$ unzip Text.zip

Example 2: Extract the compressed file Text.zip in the specified directory/TMP, if the same file exists, ask the unzip command not to overwrite the original file.

$ unzip-n text.zip-d/tmp

Example 3: View the compressed Files directory, but do not understand the pressure.

$ unzip-v Text.zip

zgrep Command

The function of this command is to look for a matching regular expression in a compressed file, using the same as the grep command, except that the object is a compressed file. If the user wants to see if there is a certain word in a compressed file, the Zgrep command is available.

Tips: when we are using SSH to send more files to Linux under Windows, we can use WinRAR to compress it into zip format, then unzip it with unzip command in Linux.
