ARK(1)								 KDE User's Manual							    ARK(1)

NAME

       ark - KDE archiving tool

SYNOPSIS

       ark [-b] [-a] [-e] [-c] [-f suffix] [-p] [-t file] [-d] [-o directory] [KDE Generic Options] [Qttm Generic Options]

DESCRIPTION

       Ark is a program for managing various compressed file formats within KDE. Archives can be viewed, extracted, created and modified with Ark.
       The program can handle various formats such as tar, gzip, bzip2, zip, rar (when the appropriate libraries or command-line programs are  in-
       stalled).

OPERATION MODES

       Ark can be used either as a stand-alone GUI program as well as a command-line program in order to perform some specific tasks.

       If invoked without the -b (--batch) or -c (--add) options, Ark is started as a normal GUI program.

       When  the -b (--batch) option is used, Ark can be used to extract the contents of one or more files directly from the command-line, without
       launching its GUI.

       When the -c (--add) option is used, Ark prompts for files that should be added to a new archive or to an existing archive.

OPTIONS

       -d, --dialog
	      Show a dialog for specifying the options for a batch or add operation.

       -o, --destination directory
	      Default the extraction directory to directory. If not passed, the current path is used.

   Options for adding files
       -c, --add
	      Query the user for an archive filename and add specified files to it. Quit when finished.

       -t, --add-to filename
	      Add the specified files to filename. Create archive if it does not exist. Quit when finished.

       -p, --changetofirstpath
	      Change the current directory to the first entry and add all other entries relative to this one.

       -f, --autofilename suffix
	      Automatically choose a filename, with the selected suffix (for example rar, tar.gz, zip or any other supported types).

   Options for batch extraction
       b, --batch
	      Use the batch interface instead of the usual dialog. This option is implied if more than one url is specified.

       -e, --autodestination
	      The destination argument will be set to the path of the first file supplied.

       -a, --autosubfolder
	      Archive contents will be read, and if detected to not be a single folder archive, a subfolder by the name of  the  archive  will	be
	      created.

EXAMPLES

       ark --batch archive.tar.bz2
	      Will extract archive.tar.bz2 into the current directory without showing any GUI.

       ark -b -d archive.tar.bz2 archive2.zip
	      Will first show an extraction options dialog and then extract both archive.tar.bz2 and archive2.zip into the directory chosen in the
	      dialog.

       ark --add-to my-archive.zip photo1.jpg text.txt
	      Will create my-archive.zip if does not exist and then add photo1.jpg and text.txt to it.
