That depends on the extension. I presume you have a file called .tar.gz or .tgz.
You "unzip" these files with the following command:
tar xvfz [FILENAME].
If it's called .zip you use unzip [FILENAME].
Nowadays there are files that have the extensio .tar.bz2. In this case, you
start with bunzip2 [FILENAME] and then tar xvf [FILENAME].
You can do this with the help of a pipe in one command, but I haven't gotten
down to that..
