Try the following:

   PKXARC -V *

   PKUNPAK -V *     (version 3.61)

One thing to watch for, though, is if you do something like..
   PKUNPAK *
That will unpack all the files from each archive in your current
directory, but will ALSO unpack any archives that may be imbedded
inside on of the archives.   Hope this helps...
