Patool

Patool is an archive file manager for the commandline console.

Various archive formats can be created, extracted, tested, listed, searched, repacked and compared with patool. The advantage of patool is its simplicity in handling archive files without having to remember a myriad of programs and options.

The archive format is determined by the file(1) program and as a fallback by the archive file extension.

patool supports 7z (.7z), ACE (.ace), ADF (.adf), ALZIP (.alz), APE (.ape), AR (.a), ARC (.arc), ARJ (.arj), BZIP2 (.bz2), CAB (.cab), compress (.Z), CPIO (.cpio), DEB (.deb), DMS (.dms), FLAC (.flac), GZIP (.gz), ISO (.iso), LRZIP (.lrz), LZH (.lha, .lzh), LZIP (.lz), LZMA (.lzma), LZOP (.lzo), RPM (.rpm), RAR (.rar), RZIP (.rz), SHN (.shn), TAR (.tar), XZ (.xz), ZIP (.zip, .jar) and ZOO (.zoo) formats. It relies on helper applications to handle those archive formats (for example bzip2 for BZIP2 archives).

The archive formats TAR (.tar), ZIP (.zip), BZIP2 (.bz2) and GZIP (.gz) are supported natively and do not require helper applications to be installed.

Examples

patool extract archive.zip otherarchive.rar
patool test --verbose dist.tar.gz
patool list package.deb
patool create --verbose myfiles.zip file1.txt dir/
patool diff release1.0.tar.gz release2.0.zip
patool search "def urlopen" python-3.3.tar.gz
patool repack linux-2.6.33.tar.gz linux-2.6.33.tar.bz2
