Hi,all:

I've couple of large tarballs such as www.tar and images.tar. Is it possible to extract a single file or a list of files from a large tarball such as images.tar instead of extracting the entire tarball? How do I extract specific files under Linux / UNIX operating systems?

All versions of *Nix have man pages. These are like WinDoze help, except more technically detailed. T use them, do prompt> man <command or file>

It's possible to see what might be related by doing prompt> man -k <subject>

man tar

<snip> EXAMPLES tar -xvf foo.tar verbosely extract foo.tar

   tar -xzf foo.tar.gz
          extract gzipped foo.tar.gz

   tar -cjf foo.tar.bz2 bar/
          create   bzipped   tar  archive  of  the  directory  bar

called foo.tar.bz2

   tar -xjf foo.tar.bz2 -C bar/
          extract bzipped foo.tar.bz2 after changing directory to bar

   tar -xzf foo.tar.gz blah.txt
          extract the file blah.txt from foo.tar.gz
