<title>Advanced options for archive extracting</title>
<p><app>File Roller</app> offers different options for
<link xref="archive-extract">extracting an archive</link>. You can see these
options in the <gui>Extract</gui> dialog. At the bottom of this dialog, you
can decide if you want to extract:</p>
<terms>
<item>
<title><gui>All files</gui></title>
<p>All the files and folders in the archive will be extracted.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Selected files</gui></title>
<p><app>File Roller</app> extracts only the selected files.</p>
<note>
<p>You need to select the files that you wish to extract before
you click <gui style="button">Extract</gui>. Do this by clicking on
the file name. Use <key>Ctrl</key> and <key>Shift</key> keys, to select
more than one file.</p>
</note>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Files</gui></title>
<p>You can type in the names of the files that you want to extract.
Separate individual files using a semicolon (<key>;</key>).</p>
<note>
<p>The file name needs to be followed by a file extension. You can use
the asterisk (<key>*</key>) as a wild card. For example, to select all
<file>.txt</file> files, type <file>*.txt</file>.</p>
</note>
</item>
</terms>
<p>You can specify in the file chooser dialog whether you want to:</p>
<terms>
<item>
<title><gui>Keep directory structure</gui></title>
<p>Tick this option if you want to keep the directory structure as it
is in your archive.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Do not overwrite newer files</gui></title>
<p>This option will not overwrite existing files with the same name,
which have a more recent modification date than those which are in the
archive.</p>
</item>
</terms>
<p>These <gui>Actions</gui> are listed at the bottom of the dialog.</p>
