Why not instead just rely on automatic archive handling in modern versions of
tar (1.15.1)?
tar xf any_file.tar.gz
tar xf any_file.tgz
tar xf any_file.tar.bz2
Probably because I didn't know that feature exisited. :P
Also, that's fine once we install tar ourselves the first time into
/tools, but what if for some reason the host doesn't have 1.15.1 (or
whatever version first implemented this feature)?
Any suggestions there?
