Extract xz archives with right click option

#1 Post by don570 »

I made a change in a script (originally by
Nathan Fisher and Tazoc)
so that .tar.xz can be extracted from a right click option
menu.

Benefits of xz compression ---> compression levels of bzip2
and speed of gzip!!!

Note: There is a pinstall.sh script to remove other right click
menu items for xz archives.
A new Extract-txz script is installed.
Requires xz compression utilities to be installed.

Recent puppies should have no problem with this script.

I tested it on Wary Lucid Puppy and Exprimo

You can test it by downloading a .tar.xz file from
http://tukaani.org/xz/

Thanks for posting. :)
Will work with Wary 5.1.1 (earliest one I have).
Will not work with Puppy Linux 4.3.1.
