lrunzip: Specify output file name and/or path.
$ lrunzip -o ${outfilename} ${filename-lrz}
try on your machine

The command "lrunzip -o ${outfilename} ${filename-lrz}" is used to extract files from a compressed .lrz archive.

Let's break down the various components of this command:

  • "lrunzip" is the command-line tool used to extract files from .lrz archives.
  • "-o" is an option that specifies the output directory for the extracted files. "${outfilename}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the desired output directory.
  • "${filename-lrz}" is another placeholder that should be replaced with the path or name of the .lrz file you want to extract.

To use this command, you would replace "${outfilename}" with the desired directory where you want the extracted files to be placed. Similarly, you would replace "${filename-lrz}" with the path or name of the .lrz file you want to extract.

For example, if you have a file named "archive.lrz" in the current directory and you want to extract it to a folder called "extracted_files", the command would be: lrunzip -o extracted_files archive.lrz

After running the command, the contents of the .lrz archive will be extracted and saved in the "extracted_files" directory.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
