bash script and function confusion

[ruzito]

Hello correct me if I'm wrong but,

• doing PATH=script_dir/extract.sh:$PATH seems highly irregular
• It doesn't actually work, the bash function extract is not being run anywhere

I propose to change the README.md so that the installation step of adding the file to path is:

export PATH="<path_to_file>":"$PATH"

("$PATH" so that any possible preexisting spaces in the path are properly escaped)
and that the extract.sh has an additional line:

extract "$@"

The readme is auto-generated with ChatGPT or similar, and yes it's completely wrong.

The script intentionally defines a function, you're supposed to source it in your shell's config file, for example put . path/to/extract.sh in ~/.bashrc.

Mine is:

source ~/.local/bin/extract.sh
alias x=extract
