Problem with unpacking archives without extension


Hy.
I have downloaded something which is cut in few archives f.e: something.rw.01, somethin.rw.02 etc.
I'v tried with ark and file-roller, but anything works. How can I unpack this on linux? This archives has no extension.
Any idea?
I'm using KDE 4.2.2.
Thanks for any advice

It really depends on the type of the archives. The extension .rw tells me nothing. What is the output of the file command?
Code:
file something.rw.01 somethin.rw.02

99.2009.DVDRiP.XviD-D3Si-RW.r01: data
This means it is an unknown format. If you know it is an archive, it can be a Winrar split compressed archive and you should have one of them with the .rar extension. Try to unpack it using rar and it should take care of joining the parts together:
Code:
rar x 99.2009.DVDRiP.XviD-D3Si-RW.rar

Ok. I founded solution
1. I've downloaded a program called deco from here http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Syste...co-29227.shtml
2. I've installed it:
Code:
 make
make install
3. And then in folder where I've downloaded those parts in console:
Code:
deco 99.2009.DVDRiP.XviD-D3Si-RW.r01
And that's all
Thanks for advice
