"$name: extract tar archives into directories, uncompressing if neccessary.
Usage: $name archive[.tar[.[Z|gz]]] ..
If an archive name given does not end in .tar, .tar.Z, or .tar.gz, it is
searched for first with .tar added, then .tar.Z, and then .tar.gz added. 
The real filename must end in either .tar, .tar.Z, or .tar.gz.  A
directory with the name of the archive is created in the current directory
(not necessarily the directory that the archive is in) if it does not
exist, and the the contents of the archive are extracted into it. 
Absolute pathnames in tarfiles are suppressed."
