man tar

in short, if you have a file, foo.tar, tar xvf foo.tar will untar it...if
its foo.tar.gz, tar zxvf foo.tar.gz will gunzip it then untar it.

try searching google as well, there're some good tutorials out there

Subject: [PHP] How do I use a .tar file?


I want to use and compile the source code for PHP just for some fun but have
no experience what soever with TAR files.  Any suggestions?
