How can I view contents of config.tbz?

How can I view the contents of configs.tbz in my save floppy or thumb drive? I tried bzip but it seems to be confused by the "t" in /tbz.

bzip2 -dc < config.tbz | tar tvf -

in order to view the archive contents,

bzip2 -dc < config.tbz | tar xvf -

in order to extract.

Erh...actually that's the old way, recent tars should directly support bzip compression through the 'j' flag, so that'd be

tar -tjvf config.tbz

Thanks Baldyeti - your scripts work perfectly.
