.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBisextract\fP is a command line tool to extract the .Z InstallShield v3
packages many old windows games were distributed as.
.sp
The files \fBisextract\fP supports normally have a \fB\&.Z\fP extension, and can be
idenfified by the \fBfile\fP(1) command:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
$ file data.z
data.z: InstallShield Z archive Data
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
\&...or by the hex signature at the start of the file:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
$ head \-c6 data.z | xxd
00000000: 135d 658c 3a01 .]e.:.

List contents of archive.
.TP
.B \fBx\fP

If \fBfile\fP says "compress\(aqd data" or similar, your file isn\(aqt an
InstallShield archive; it\(aqs compressed with the old UNIX compress
command, and can be extracted with \fBuncompress\fP(1) or \fBgzip\fP(1).
.sp
When extracting, \fBisextract\fP \fIDOES NOT\fP preserve the directory structure
inside the archive. All files are written to the same directory. If you
need the directories, use \fBunshieldv3\fP instead.
