Hey everyone. This has to be up on the top 10 stupid questions that has been posted. I'll continue writing anyway....
Do I need to download an aplication to unzip *.rar files? Or is there a command that I can excecute? If I need to download an application, what would you advise? Thanks a lot.

Rar files? Do you mean tar files? No, just run 'man tar' for instructions. You might want to change your subject to match the question, a moderator may delete your post if you don't.

Now, MY question, please? Where is the other end, the rar that makes the archive?
not sure this slipped through the cracks with a subject of :" SUPIDDDDDDD QUESTION.... (.rar)"
Unfortunately I am going to have to lock this thread.
Please read our posting guidelines, they are in sticky posts at the top of each forum.
You are welcome to repost with a subject that complies with our posting guidelines. Perhaps "what software do I need to unpack .rar files".
(also, just so you know. ALLCAPS on the Internet means yelling. you may get more help if you refrain from using ALLCAPS as most people find it rude. anyway, just a suggestion)
Thanks.
