engrampa Command Examples in Linux

by Deepika

engrampa is a graphical archive manager for the MATE desktop environment. It is a fork of file-roller, an archive manager for the GNOME desktop environment. Engrampa allows users to create and extract archive files in various formats, such as .zip, .tar, .tar.gz, and .rar, among others.

The main window of engrampa is divided into three panes: the navigation pane on the left, the file list pane in the middle, and the preview pane on the right. Users can navigate through their file system and select the files and folders they wish to archive. Users can also extract archive files, view the contents of an archive, and create new archive files.

engrampa Command Examples

1. Start engrampa:

# engrampa

2. Open specific archives:

# engrampa path/to/archive1.tar path/to/archive2.tar ...

3. Archive specific files and/or directories recursively:

# engrampa --add-to=path/to/compressed.tar path/to/file_or_directory1 path/to/file_or_directory2 ...

4. Extract files and/or directories from archives to a specific path:

# engrampa --extract-to=path/to/directory path/to/archive1.tar path/to/archive2.tar ...
