afio - extract single files?

[Tom Betz]

Quoth tbetz at upaya.UUCP (Tom Betz) in <902 at upaya.UUCP>:

|And then I went to try to figure out how one would extract just
|one file from an afio-created archive, and realized that I don't
|know how!
|
|How does one do that?

Ake Sandgren was kind enough to direct me to the -y switch, which
works, though not entirely consistently with the way other
archiver programs work.  For example, while 'afio -i -y "tbetz/progwork"'
results in the contents of that directory being installed as
desired, 'afio -i -y "tbetz/progwork/" does not work, nor does 
'afio -i -y "tbetz/progwork/*".

However, I now know how to use this feature, and only wonder that
the only reply I received originated in Sweden!


Thanks, Ake.
