Hi Stan!
The easiest way under KDE is to open kfm, change to the diirectory where
the
file s located, move the mouse over it, click the ROGHT button and
choose
"archiver" to uncompress it.
The not so easy way is to open a shell, change to the directory with the
compressed file in it and then type
tar -xfvz file.tar.gz
or
tar -xIf file.tar.bz2
Hope that helps.
Cheers!
