How to extract .gz/bzip2 archive

How to extract .gz/bzip2 archive

[Ding Lei]

Hello,
   Is it possible to extract a .tar.gz/bz2 file in Emacs, instead of view it
in dired mode.
   Thank you!

Well ... what I mean is "tar -zxvf", not just the compress/uncompress(Z).
Thank you.

Well, you can C-x d the directory that contains the archive, then use
the ! key to invoke tar.  You can put * into the command line, that
will be replaced with the filename.

Try auto-compression-mode. Using it I simply open a
compressed tar-file and the buffer shows its content. Is this what
you mean?
