+.TP
+.B \fBx\fP
+Extract archive. If an \fIoutput\-dir\fP is given, extracted files will be written
+there (the \fIoutput\-dir\fP must already exist). Without \fIoutput\-dir\fP, the current
+directory is used.

+.sp
+If \fBfile\fP says "compress\(aqd data" or similar, your file isn\(aqt an
+InstallShield archive; it\(aqs compressed with the old UNIX compress
+command, and can be extracted with \fBuncompress\fP(1) or \fBgzip\fP(1).
+.sp
+When extracting, \fBisextract\fP \fIDOES NOT\fP preserve the directory structure
+inside the archive. All files are written to the same directory. If you
+need the directories, use \fBunshieldv3\fP instead.
