They're *very* different from tar archives.

".plt" files are base64'd and gzip'd, but I think that's not a
conventional tar format they're using. (For another implementation of
reading ".plt" files, you can see function "quack-pltfile-decode-buffer"
in Quack.)
For picking apart a tarb
.plt files are mime encoded gziped tars AFAIK. There is a function
called unmztar in setup/unpack.rkt that probably untars. However it is
not provided by that module. Probably the best thing to do is write
your own based on that code.

Hi all again,
In the documentation I find functions for creating tar files
(http://docs.racket-lang.org/file/tar.html?q=tar#%28def._%28%28lib._file/tar..rkt%29._tar%29%29),
but none for unpacking them.
Is anyone aware of some library functions for unpacking tarballs?
Thanks,
-ryan
