tar -xvf <archive-name>

but only because I had to look it up twice so now my brain has committed it to memory
I don’t even know what it does

i just use unar (unarchive) nowadays, since that works with all file formats iirc

Extract a tarball with verbose output from the specified file.

And learn how to use the ‘z’ option

tar --help

tar - h

Unfortunately that’s not valid.

$ tar -h
tar: You must specify one of the '-Acdtrux', '--delete' or '--test-label' options
Try 'tar --help' or 'tar --usage' for more information.

From man-page:

-h, --dereference follow symlinks; archive and dump the files they point to

tar -jcvf archive.tbz ~/stuff/*

Of course I don’t know the bomb had bzip2 on it… I wonder if we can start with ls to see if there’s anything to tar or untar
