Extract just the .PHP files

[neworderfac33]

Good morning,

I've made some changes to main.php and side.php, but I've lost my copy of the original unmodified files.
Can one of you nice people please tell me how to just extract those two files from the .tar, please?
Thank you.

I would use a program like 7zip to open up the tar.gz, or just extract it on linux using tar zxf filename.tar.gz

Thank you - it was probably a silly question, but as this is the Dark Word of Linux, I wasn't even sure if I COULD unzip .tar files with 7Zip!
The syntax for unzipping it on the Linux server was useful too, so thank you - I've now been able to extract the two .PHP files, so this thread can be closed.

Awesome, I'll close this one up.
