  <title>Advanced options for archive extracting</title>

  <p><app>File Roller</app> offers different options for
  <link xref="archive-extract">extracting an archive</link>. You can see these
  options in the <gui>Extract</gui> dialog. At the bottom of this dialog, you
  can decide if you want to extract:</p>

  <terms>
    <item>
      <title><gui>All files</gui></title>
      <p>All the files and folders in the archive will be extracted.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><gui>Selected files</gui></title>
      <p><app>File Roller</app> extracts only the selected files.</p>
      <note>
        <p>You need to select the files that you wish to extract before
        you click <gui style="button">Extract</gui>. Do this by clicking on
        the file name. Use <key>Ctrl</key> and <key>Shift</key> keys, to select
        more than one file.</p>
      </note>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><gui>Files</gui></title>
      <p>You can type in the names of the files that you want to extract.
      Separate individual files using a semicolon (<key>;</key>).</p>
      <note>
        <p>The file name needs to be followed by a file extension. You can use
        the asterisk (<key>*</key>) as a wild card. For example, to select all
        <file>.txt</file> files, type <file>*.txt</file>.</p>
      </note>
    </item>
  </terms>

  <p>You can specify in the file chooser dialog whether you want to:</p>
  <terms>
    <item>
      <title><gui>Keep directory structure</gui></title>
      <p>Tick this option if you want to keep the directory structure as it
      is in your archive.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <title><gui>Do not overwrite newer files</gui></title>
      <p>This option will not overwrite existing files with the same name,
      which have a more recent modification date than those which are in the
      archive.</p>
    </item>
  </terms>

  <p>These <gui>Actions</gui> are listed at the bottom of the dialog.</p>
