Well, you need to define "open".  A PDF file is read, but a tar file
contains other files to be extracted.

If it's just a text file, you could zcat it and trap the output.  If not,
though, you're probably interested in the contents of the tar file,
though perhaps in extracting the files somewhere, and so you'd probably
want to write a wrapper script that takes the file as an argument and
then asks for input or such.
