對於Window下的常見壓縮檔案.zip和.rar，Linux也有相應的方法來解壓它們：

1)對於.zip

linux下提供了zip和unzip程式，zip是壓縮程式，unzip是解壓程式。它們的引數選項很多，可用命令zip -help和unzip -help檢視，這裡只做簡單介紹，舉例說明一下其用法：

# zip yajiu.zip yajiu.jpg yajiu.png
這條命令是將yajiu.jpg和yajiu.png壓縮成一個zip包
# zip yajiu.zip *.jpg
這條命令是將所有.jpg的檔案壓縮成一個zip包
# zip -r yajiu.zip yajiu
這條命令是將資料夾yajiu壓縮成一個zip包
# unzip yajiu.zip
這條命令是將yajiu.zip中的所有檔案解壓出來

[email protected]:~/圖片zip yajiu.zip yajiu.jpg yajiu.png
updating: yajiu.jpg (deflated 34%)
updating: yajiu.png (deflated 0%)
[email protected]:~/圖片$ zip yajiu.zip *.jpg
adding: 1.jpg (deflated 34%)
adding: 2.jpg (deflated 0%)
[email protected]:~/圖片$ zip -r yajiu.zip yajiu
adding: yajiu/ (stored 0%)
adding: yajiu/yajiu.zip (stored 0%)
adding: yajiu/yajiu.jpg (deflated 34%)
adding: yajiu/yajiu.rar (deflated 0%)
adding: yajiu/yajiu.7z (deflated 0%)
adding: yajiu/yajiu.png (deflated 0%)

[email protected]:~/圖片$ unzip yajiu.zip
Archive: yajiu.zip
replace 1.jpg? [y]es, [n]o, [A]ll, [N]one, [r]ename: y
inflating: 1.jpg                  
replace 2.jpg? [y]es, [n]o, [A]ll, [N]one, [r]ename: y
inflating: 2.jpg

2)對於.rar

安裝： sudo apt-get install rar unrar

或者可從http://www.rarsoft.com/download.htm下載 RAR for Linux 編譯安裝
# tar -xzpvf rarlinux-3.8.0.tar.gz
# cd rar
# make
這樣就安裝好了，安裝之後就有了rar和unrar這兩個程式，rar是壓縮程式，unrar是解壓程式。它們的引數選項很多，可用命令rar -help和unrar -help檢視，這裡亦簡單舉例說明一下其用法：

# rar a yajiu.rar yajiu.jpg yajiu.png
這條命令是將yajiu.jpg和yajiu.png壓縮成一個rar包
# rar a yajiu.rar *.jpg
這條命令是將所有.jpg的檔案壓縮成一個rar包
# rar a yajiu.rar yajiu
這條命令是將資料夾yajiu壓縮成一個rar包
# unrar e yajiu.rar
這條命令是將yajiu.rar中的所有檔案解壓出來
