Description

If you're a Mac user, you've probably come across pkg files at some point. These files are used to install software on your Mac, but they can be a bit of a headache. They have the ability to touch any part of your system they want, which can be concerning for some users. Additionally, many times the installer files are useless anyway; all they do is make sure an app is installed in /Applications, for example, which you can handle yourself.

That's where unpkg comes in. This handy utility unpacks all the files in a package into a folder in the same directory as the package. It's simple and effective - just what you need when dealing with pesky pkg files.

One of the best things about unpkg is that it's free and open source software released under GNU GPL license. This means that anyone can use it without having to pay anything or worry about licensing issues.

However, it's important to note that with many very system dependent pkgs, unpkg shouldn't be used because it doesn't do any system related stuff on purpose. But for simple applications (and even ones that just install extensions in places), unpkg should be fine.

So if you're tired of dealing with pkg files on your Mac and want an easy solution to unpack them quickly and efficiently, give unpkg a try!
