Hi Igor -

I have had that problem too. On my Slackware system the "less"
command is installed in such a way that it automatically shows
the files contained in a tar archive. The first file listed will
be a directory if the  archive will be one that creates its own
directory.

If your "less" will not do that, you can always create a
temporary directory and untar the thing in there. If it does
create its own directory under your temporary one, you can just
"mv" the thing to where you want it.
