turnin is a utility that enables students to turnin assignments using the command line. Requires a setup where each class has a unix account in the computer infrastructure of the school/university.
Due to the changes happening usually in the way we compress (and therefore decompress) files, I recommend turnin to create a bash(1) script that accepts one argument, the username and decompresses the file in the proper directory.
Example:
check user9999
And:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir $1 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
tar <args> $1 -C ./$1/
echo "Decompressed $1 to ./$1"
