.rar file on ubuntu

Have you downloaded a .rar file and was unable to extract it? Well here is what you need to do. Ensure that your Multiverse Repo is enabled and from the terminal enter:

sudo apt-get install unrar
enter the password

Once installed, in the terminal cd to the folder with the .rar file and enter:

unrar x filename.rar

The file will be extracted in the same location.

I think the correct command is unrar e filename.rar

well thats the command i saw and it works but if u right click the file and choose "extract here" unrar is used automatically
