unpack a bunch of partioned .rar's to one file structure


I just downloaded a torrent and there are a bunch of .rar's. On windows, you'd select all, and extract them with winrar so that they all added to the same few files in the unpacked target dir.

Is there a legitimate way to accomplish this with foss software that does not entail using the linux winrar commandline tool, or using WINE with windows winrar?

Thanks!

rar and unrar run natively in Linux, you just have to see if unrar supports wildcards...

i don't use it so i can not say...
