Or you can even use the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) that includes native support for Ubuntu, Fedora, SUSE, and many other distros.

However, Windows 10 now includes native support for tar files, and you can use Command Prompt to extract these files. While you can use third-party apps (such as 7-Zip and PeaZip), these apps do not always work as expected with tarballs created on another platform, and they are slow to uncompress a large number of files. However, Windows 10 users may also come across these files, which is a reason to have a way to extract its contents. Typically, tar files are more common with Ubuntu (other Linux distros) and macOS users for data archival and backups. These files are often referred to as “tarballs.” While you can find them with a double extension (.tar.gz), the extension can also be shortened to. tar.gz format is a file that has been created using the Unix-based archival application tar and then compressed using the gzip compression. $ tar xvf /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.A file using. $ /usr/local/Custom/lunzip/bin/lunzip /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz To run lunzip $ /usr/local/Custom/lunzip/bin/lunzipĮNABLE without path # echo '/usr/local/Custom/lunzip/bin' > /etc/paths configure -prefix=/usr/local/Custom/lunzip $ tar zxvf /usr/local/Sources/lunzip-1.9.tar.gz -C /usr/local/Sources/ To run lzip $ /usr/local/Custom/lzip/bin/lzip configure -prefix=/usr/local/Custom/lzip $ tar zxvf /usr/local/Sources/lzip-1.19.tar.gz -C /usr/local/Sources/ Invalid input file, 3 for an internal consistency error (eg, bug) which Not found, invalid flags, I/O errors, etc), 2 to indicate a corrupt or Options directly to achieve optimal performance.Įxit status: 0 for a normal exit, 1 for environmental problems (file If your files are large, very repetitive,Įtc, you may need to use the -dictionary-size and -match-length The bidimensional parameter space of LZMA can't be mapped to a linear Numbers may be followed by a multiplier: k = kB = 10^3 = 1000, If no file names are given, or if a file is '-', lzip compresses orĭecompresses from standard input to standard output. v, -verbose be verbose (a 2nd -v gives more) S, -volume-size= set volume size limit in bytes s, -dictionary-size= set dictionary size limit in bytes o, -output= if reading standard input, write to m, -match-length= set match length limit in bytes

Have a look at: How to Install Command Line Tools in OS X Mavericks & Yosemite (Without Xcode) $ lzip -help You also need to have Command Line Tools for Xcode installed in either case. I use lzip, which I compiled from source code, however it can also be installed with Homebrew: brew install lzip Joses-MacBook-Air:~ joseluisbz$ tar -xjf /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz Joses-MacBook-Air:~ joseluisbz$ tar -xjf /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz -C /usr/local/Sources/ Joses-MacBook-Air:~ joseluisbz$ tar xjf /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz -C /usr/local/Sources/ Xz: /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz: File format not recognized Joses-MacBook-Air:~ joseluisbz$ xz -dv /usr/local/Sources/ddrescue-1.22.tar.lz Xz: Compressed data cannot be written to a terminal
