unrar x $file extracts $file with the full path. If the archive contains a folder blah with file blah.blah. Using unrar x will produce $PWD/blah/blah.blah. unrar e $file extracts $file to current directory without rebuilding the folder structure. Following the above example you would end up with blah.blah in the current directory. If the OPs command is not a typo, the problem is with the '/' 's There most likely isn't a rar archive located at / nor have write permissions to / . IF there is a rar archive in / and does have write permission to / there's a whole other set of problems here. User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 (X11/20090103) I do believe that qualifies as Linux? X-Mailer: Microsoft Windows Mail 6.0.6002.16670 <-- Could be why double clicking also works for you. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
