how to see read.bz2 file

Please see the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature.

You have provided ZERO details about what you're asking, so there's not a lot anyone can tell you. Any bz2 file can be uncompress by using the bzip2 command. Type in "bzip2 --help" for details.

1. Open a terminal.
2. Navigate to the folder where the tar.bz2 file is kept.
3. Type this command on the terminal
You fail to tell us what kind of files are in the tar.bz2 archive so I can't tell you what to do once you've unpacked the files.
jdk

unzip the archive as you would ANY ZIPPED ARCHIVE
this is the same as on windows 7 , 8 or a mac !!!!!!

Do a tar -tvf of the bz2 file. Sometimes I prefer to view the contents versus extract if I don't know what's yet contained within the compressed file.

thank you for yours replying. I did it.

Can you tell us what you did and then mark this thread as [SOLVED]. This will help other users with the same problem as yours.
Thanks,
