For command line, I use

ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/archiver/untgz095.zip

[H:\os2skye.exe]dir unt*
2-17-97 9:50a 71184 0 UNTGZOS2.EXE

It's GNU freeware, and not too many switches:

[H:\os2skye.exe]untgzos2

UNTGZ/OS2 Decompression Utility 0.95 freeware version
Copyright (c) 1996,97 Tillmann Steinbrecher. Feb 17 1997

USAGE: UNTGZOS2 to extract from TGZ/TAR archive
UNTGZOS2 -l to list/test TGZ/TAR archive
UNTGZOS2 -t to test CRC of GZ/TGZ archive
UNTGZOS2 -d to decompress GZ archive
UNTGZOS2 -y to assume YES on all queries

GZIP compressed, PKZIP compressed and uncompressed TAR
archives are supported.
