Well, but it fails (but returns exit status success) even if the file is compressed (ex. gzipped) but the fipped file extension isn't .gz. It will procuce an exact copy of the original. This is a .tar.gz file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2736 Oct 21 16:32 foo.tar.bar # zcat foo.tar.bar >foo.tar;echo $? 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2736 Oct 21 16:37 foo.tar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2736 Oct 21 16:32 foo.tar.bar Attemting to extract the archive will fail instead, with appropriate exit status.
