COMMANDS
Several commands and options are available.
extract
Extract files from an archive4. Often one wants to extract all files in an archive to a single subdirectory. However, some archives contain multiple files in their
root directories. The patool program overcomes this problem by first extracting files to a unique (temporary) directory, and then moving its contents back if possible.
This also prevents local files from being overwritten by mistake.
