MACUNPACK(L) LOCAL COMMANDS MACUNPACK(L)
NAME
macunpack - Macintosh file de-archiver
SYNOPSIS
macunpack [ - options ] [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
_m_a_c_u_n_p_a_c_k takes the Macintosh MacBinary archive specified in
_f_i_l_e (or standard input if none is specified) and extracts
the files it contains subject to the _o_p_t_i_o_n_s specified. The
program will also accept the data fork of the archive for
some kinds of archive as standard input.
OPTIONS
In the absence of any options, _m_a_c_u_n_p_a_c_k takes the specified
archive and silently extracts the file(s) it contains into
MacBinary format, giving the output files ".bin" extensions
and placing them in the current working directory. Sub-
directories are created for embedded folders.
-3 Write files in fork format (.info, .data and .rsrc
files.)
-f As -3, but empty data and rsrc files are not created.
-r Write resource forks only (.rsrc files.)
-d Write data forks only (.data files.)
-u As -d, but the codes for CR and LF are interchanged,
the filename extension is .text.
-U As -u, but there is no filename extension.
-a Write files in AppleShare format. This option is only
valid if the program is compiled with support for some
form of AppleShare. The current directory must be a
valid AppleShare folder.
-s Write extracted files to standard output in MacBinary
format.
-l List every file extracted (and every directory/folder
created etc.)
-v Like -l, but more verbose (implies -l.)
-i Do not extract, give information only (implies -l.)
-q Ask the user for every file/folder whether it should be
extracted (implies -l.)
