unpack ”expands files created by pack

unpack expands files created by pack . For each filename specified in the command, a search is made for a file called name .z (or just name , if name ends in .z ). If this file appears to be a packed file, it is replaced by its expanded version. The new file has the .z suffix stripped from its name, and has the same access modes, access and modification dates, and owner as those of the packed file.
