Download dtrx +6.2. The SHA1 checksum for this file +is 7f2c633c97e79083c08cb63f3c155395f8f88646. New features in this release include:

Add support for InstallShield archives, using -the unshield command.
The wording of many of the interactive prompts has been adjusted -to be clearer and provide more information to the user -immediately.
dtrx 6.1 does a better job protecting -against race conditions when extracting a single file.
If you used the -f option, and extracted an archive that only contained -one file or directory, dtrx 6.0 would still -prompt you to ask how it should be -extracted. dtrx 6.1 fixes this, extracting the -contents to the current directory as -f requires.
Recursive extraction would not work well -in dtrx 6.0 when the contents of the original -archive were a single file. This has been fixed -in dtrx 6.1.
A new --one-entry option: Normally, if an archive only +contains one file or directory with a name that doesn't match the +archive's, dtrx will ask you how to handle it. With this option, you can +specify ahead of time what should happen.
Since version 6.0, when you extracted or listed the contents of a cpio +archive, dtrx would display a warning that simply said "1234 +blocks." dtrx 6.2 suppresses this message.
When you try to list the contents of an archive, dtrx will now cope +with misnamed files more gracefully, giving more accurate results and +showing fewer error messages.
dtrx 6.2 will only show you error messages from archive extraction if +it is completely unable to extract the file. If one of its extraction +methods succeeds, it will no longer show you the error messages from +previous extraction attempts.
dtrx is now better about cleaning up partially extracted archives when +it encounters an error or signal.
Users will no longer see error messages about broken pipes from +dtrx.
