My fav script to unpack anything, found a few years ago somewhere
# ex - archive extractor
# usage: ex <file>
function ex() {
if [ -f $1 ] ; then
case $1 in
*.tar.bz2) tar xjf $1 ;;
*.tar.gz) tar xzf $1 ;;
*.tar.xz) tar xf $1 ;;
*.bz2) bunzip2 $1 ;;
*.rar) unrar x $1 ;;
*.gz) gunzip $1 ;;
*.tar) tar xf $1 ;;
*.tbz2) tar xjf $1 ;;
*.tgz) tar xzf $1 ;;
*.zip) unzip $1 ;;
*.Z) uncompress $1;;
*.7z) 7z x $1 ;;
*) echo "'$1' cannot be extracted via ex()" ;;
esac
else
echo "'$1' is not a valid file"
fi
