If I have a folder containing a number of .tar.gz and .tgz files and wish to 
untar them all, how would I go about doing so?  I've tried tar xvfz *.tar.gz 
and tar xvfz *.gz as well as several other variations, but they all just 
error out with something like all the files listed saying 'Not found in 
archive'

Thanks.
