✨ unalz(1) ✨

okay bestie, sit DOWN because we're talking about unalz — the manual page for the unalz tool, aka the little icon that decompresses alzip formatted files, the ones with names ending in .alz 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

unalz — decompresses alzip formatted files with names ending in .alz 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

unalz [OPTIONS...] archive.alz [files_to_extract...]

like, that's the whole vibe. options first, then your archive, then optionally the specific files you want out of it 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so the unalz tool is the utility used for decompressing alzip format files. it mainly operates on files with names ending in .alz. that's its whole thing, that's its moment, that's its main character energy 👑

ngl this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. we're literally filling a void here. iconic of us fr fr.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -utf8 — convert filename's codepage to UTF-8. this is the default, so it's giving "already slaying" 💜
  • -cp949 — convert filename's codepage to CP949. for when your filenames need that Korean encoding moment 🇰🇷
  • -euc-kr — convert filename's codepage to EUC-KR. another Korean codepage option, we love choices 🎀
  • -l — list the archive contents. no extracting, just peeking 👀 lowkey nosy but make it useful
  • -d DIR — set output directory. tell it where to put the goods 📁
  • -p — extract files to pipe, no messages. silent mode activated, not a word, just vibes 🤫
  • -pwd PWD — set password. for the locked archives, the mysterious ones 🔐

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

  • unzip (1)
  • gzip (1)
