Linux compression and decompression commands

Article Title: linux compression and decompression commands. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

.Tar.gz

Decompress: tar zxvf FileName.tar.gz

Compression: tar zcvf FileName.tar.gz DirName

This section roughly summarizes the compression and decompression methods for various formats of compressed packages in linux. However, I have not used some of the methods. I hope you can help me with them. I will modify them at any time. Thank you!

. Tar

Unpack: tar xvf FileName.tar

Package: tar cvf FileName.tar DirName

(Note: tar is packed, not compressed !)

---------------------------------------------

. Gz

Decompress 1: gunzip FileName.gz

Decompress 2: gzip-d FileName.gz

Compression: gzip FileName

.Tar.gz and. tgz

Decompress: tar zxvf FileName.tar.gz

Compression: tar zcvf FileName.tar.gz DirName

---------------------------------------------

. Bz2

Decompress 1: bzip2-d FileName.bz2

Decompress 2: bunzip2 FileName.bz2

Compression: bzip2-z FileName

.Tar.bz2

Decompress: tar jxvf FileName.tar.bz2

Compression: tar jcvf FileName.tar.bz2 DirName

---------------------------------------------

. Bz

Extract 1: bzip2-d FileName. bz

Decompress 2: bunzip2 FileName. bz

Compression: Unknown

. Tar. bz

Decompress: tar jxvf FileName.tar. bz

Compression: Unknown

---------------------------------------------

. Z

Decompress: uncompress FileName. Z

Compression: compress FileName

. Tar. Z

Decompress: tar Zxvf FileName.tar. Z

Compression: tar Zcvf FileName.tar. Z DirName

---------------------------------------------

. Zip

Decompress: unzip FileName.zip

Compression: zip FileName.zip DirName

---------------------------------------------

. Rar

Decompress: rar x FileName.rar

Compression: rar a FileName.rar DirName

Rar Please download to: http://www.rarsoft.com/download.htm!

After decompression, copy rar_static to the/usr/bin directory (Other Directories specified by the $ PATH environment variable can also be used ):

[Root @ www2 tmp] # cp rar_static/usr/bin/rar

---------------------------------------------

. Lha

Decompress: lha-e FileName. lha

Compression: lha-a FileName. lha FileName

Lha please: http://www.infor.kanazawa-it.ac.jp /~ Ishii/lhaunix/download!

> After decompression, copy lha to the/usr/bin directory (Other Directories specified by the $ PATH environment variable can also be used ):

[Root @ www2 tmp] # cp lha/usr/bin/

---------------------------------------------

. Rpm

Unpack: rpm2cpio FileName. rpm | cpio-div

---------------------------------------------

. Deb

Unpack: ar p FileName. deb data.tar.gz | tar zxf-

---------------------------------------------

. Tar. tgz .tar.gz. tar. Z. tar. bz .tar.bz2. zip. cpio. rpm

. Deb. slp. arj. rar. ace. lha. lzh. lzx. lzs. arc. sda. sfx. lnx

. Zoo. cab. kar. cpt. pit. sit. sea

Decompress: sEx x FileName .*

Compression: sEx a FileName. * FileName

SEx only calls related programs and does not support compression or decompression. Please note!

For sEx, go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/sexto download it!

After decompression, copy sEx to the/usr/bin directory (Other Directories specified by the $ PATH environment variable can also be used ):

[Root @ www2 tmp] # cp sEx/usr/bin/

(In fact, help is the best method. Generally, you can use the "-- help" parameter for each command to get a commonly used method !)

Users often need to back up data in computer systems. To save storage space, backup files are often compressed. The following describes the backup and compression commands.
