xe - eXtract Everything!
XE is a little tool to replace the various commands needed to exctract
different types of archives.
No more guessing: tar xzvf - tar xjvf - tar xIvf - unzip -
gunzip - which one was it?! Let xe do the work!
Just do
xe archive.tar.gz
or
xe archive.zip
etc! XE is only a little bash script, and should work on every distro and
platform.
Supported file formats
XE autodetects and supports the following file formats:- tar.gz, tgz
- tar.bz2, tbz, tb2
- zip
- gz
- bz2
- src.rpm
Download
| Version | tar.bz2 | RPM | README | Release Date |
| 0.1 | xe-0.1.tar.bz2 | xe-0.1-0.noarch.rpm | README | Mon Jun 22 2002 |
Inside xe
XE gets the file type from the extension of the file. Files with wrong extension (e.g. tar.gz, but already gunzip'ed) are not recognised right now. I'll add this functionality on demand.
