Extract .tgz files that only contain a pattern
Let's say I've got File.tgz that contains:-
Apple.txt
Banana.txt
Carrot.txt
AppleBanana.txt
Now, I would like to only extract files that contain the patter "Apple".
I've tried this
tar -xvf File.tgz 'tar -tf File.tgz | grep 'Apple''
but it does not work. Please help. Thanks.
