NAME
     unar - extract archive file contents

SYNOPSIS
     unar [OPTION]... ARCHIVE [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
     Extract FILEs or the contents of ARCHIVE.

OPTIONS
     -o, -output-directory DIRECTORY
	    The  directory to write the contents of the archive to.  Defaults to
	    the current directory.

     -f, -force-overwrite
	    Always overwrite files when a file to be unpacked already exists  on
	    disk.   By default, the program asks the user if possible, otherwise
	    skips the file.

     -r, -force-rename
	    Always rename files when a file to be  unpacked  already  exists  on
	    disk.

     -s, -force-skip
	    Always skip files when a file to be unpacked already exists on disk.

     -d, -force-directory
	    Always  create  a  containing  directory for the contents of the un-
	    packed archive.  By default, a directory is created if there is more
	    than one top-level file or folder.

     -D, -no-directory
	    Never create a containing directory for the contents of the unpacked
	    archive.

     -p, -password PASSWORD
	    The password to use for decrypting protected archives.

     -e, -encoding ENCODING
	    The encoding to use for filenames in the archive,  when  it  is  not
	    known.   If  not  specified, the program attempts to auto-detect the
	    encoding used.  Use "help" or "list" as the argument to give a list-
	    ing of all supported encodings.

     -E, -password-encoding ENCODING
	    The encoding to use for the password for the archive, when it is not
	    known.  If not specified, then either the encoding given by the -en-
	    coding option or the auto-detected encoding is used.

     -i, -indexes
	    Instead of specifying the files to list  as  filenames  or	wildcard
	    patterns, specify them as indexes, as output by lsar.

     -nr, -no-recursion
	    Do	not attempt to extract archives contained in other archives. For
	    instance, when unpacking a .tar.gz file, only unpack the  .tar  file
	    and not its contents.

     -t, -copy-time
	    Copy  the  file  modification time from the archive file to the con-
	    taining directory, if one is created.

     -k, -forks visible|hidden|skip
	    How to handle Mac OS resource forks.   visible  creates  AppleDouble
	    files  with  the extension ".rsrc", hidden creates AppleDouble files
	    with the prefix "._", and skip discards  all  resource  forks.   De-
	    faults to visible.

     -q, -quiet
	    Run in quiet mode.

     -h, -help
	    Display help information.
