SYNOPSIS

|
========
|
|
|
|
unshieldv3 **info** *file.z*
|
|
|
|
unshieldv3 **list** [**-v**] *file.z*
|
|
|
|
unshieldv3 **extract** *file.z* *output-dir*

|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
**unshieldv3** is a command line tool to extract the .Z InstallShield v3
|
|
packages many old windows games were distributed as.
|
|
|
|
The files **unshieldv3** supports normally have a **.Z** extension, and can be
|
|
identified by the **file**\(1) command:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ file data.Z
|
|
data.z: InstallShield Z archive Data
|
|
|
|
...or by the hex signature at the start of the file:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ head -c6 data.Z | xxd
|
|
00000000: 135d 658c 3a01 .]e.:.
|
|
|
|
If **file** says "compress'd data" or similar, your .Z file isn't an
|
|
InstallShield archive; it's compressed with the old UNIX compress
|
|
command, and can be extracted with **uncompress**\(1) or **gzip**\(1).
|
|
|
|
When extracting, **unshieldv3** preserves the directory structure
|
|
inside the archive. This is unlike **isextract**\(1), which writes all
|
|
the files in the same directory.
|
|
|
|
