Do you happen to know where I can find some examples or sample code for these? The exec function on php.net didn't go into much detail about extraction from compressed files. Anyone know of any good references?

Namely tar and gz and bzip2 and zip/unzip. For single files that are compressed you can use PHP to decompress bzip2 and .gz files if you have compiled PHP --with-zlib and --with-bz2, otherwise you must use the command line tools.
