How do I look inside a ".pet" ?

Re: How do I look inside a ".pet" ?
I just right click on the pet and rename the extension from "pet" to "tar.gz" (without the quotes). Then just left click it, extract it and explore.tytower wrote:I want to see whats in one I downloaded . Is there a how to on this?
HTH.
cd /tmp ; curl -C - -O file:///mnt/sr0/PET_files/mesa-7.6-q1.pet ; pet2tgz mesa-7.6-q1.pet ; tar -tf mesa-7.6-q1.tar.gz | cut -d '/' -f 2-7 | sed 's/^/\//' ; rm /tmp/mesa-7.6-q1.tar.gz

You can also try my lspet or lspet-gui:

Both are on the second page.

Don't be misled by this .It lists some of the directory names only.vovchik wrote:You can also try my lspet or lspet-gui:

About 6 or 7 in the case of LibreOffice.pet
Changing the name to ".tgz " and then opening it ,in fact, showed the hundreds of files and directories contained in the pet . That's what I wanted to see and I don't see any point in downloading or using "lspet"?
Code: Select all
tar xf somepackage.pet
it will extract files into directory because .pet is basically tar archive with some additional info attached, it will show some errors in console because of this but all files will be extracted normally
puppy.b0x.me stuff mirrored [url=https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_Mb589v0iCXNnhSZWRwd3R2UWs]HERE[/url] or [url=http://archive.org/details/Puppy_Linux_puppy.b0x.me_mirror]HERE[/url]
'tar -tf archivename' to simply list the archive without extracting it -except that you need to tell atr that it is a gzipped tarred archive like this:
'tar --use-compress-program=gzip -tf archivename'
Add '2>/dev/null' if the warning about garbage at the end bothers you...
Probably someone here will come up with a 'new distro' especially dedicated to listing the contents of pets, with a full range of pet2?? and ??2pet scripts -maybe even a gui to create a partition dedicated to holding the pet contents so that lspet or lsdir can list them. LOL
