tar -czf files don't extract completely #708

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Steps to reproduce:

1. Set The Unarchiver as the default handler for zip files.
2. Under Extraction preferences, make sure both "Open the extracted folder" and 
"Move the archive to the trash" are enabled.
2. Create a file. I use "Hooray! I extracted!" inside a file called 
extractMe.txt.
3. Compress the file in the Terminal using tar -czf extractMe.zip extractMe.txt.
4. Double click the resulting zip file.

Expected results:
The original text file extracts, and the .zip moves to the trash.

Actual results:
The file extracts to a new file called "extractMe" with no extension. If I run 
the command "file extractMe", I see that it is a POSIX tar archive. If I double 
click this file again, it extracts the original text file.

The .zip extension is incorrect. Name it .tar.gz and it should work correctly. 
There is not much to do about this.

When I do .tar.gz and try to unzip it, The Unarchiver trashes the .tar.gz but 
leaves no file in its place. I checked with another tool, and the .tar.gz 
definitely contains the txt file.

Make sure you are running the latest version.

Boom. App Store wasn't reporting the update until I opened it. Thanks so much!
