       -f, --extract		       Ask for the name of the destination folder, then extract the files, then quit the application.

       -h, --extract-here	       Extract archives using the archive name as destination folder and quit the program.

       -e, --extract-to=folder	       Extract archives to the specified folder, then quit the application.

       --force			       Create the destination folder without asking for confirmation.
