Archive_Tar
pear.php.net
Tar file management class
This class provides handling of tar files in PHP.
It supports creating, listing, extracting and adding to tar files.
Gzip support is available if PHP has the zlib extension built-in or
loaded. Bz2 compression is also supported with the bz2 extension loaded.
Also Lzma2 compressed archives are supported with xz extension.
