Simple script to extract all the object files (.o) from a static library. By default it extracts the x86_64 architecture but can be easily changed. This is useful to inspect static libraries with Hopper (http://www.hopperapp.com) (You can inspect static libraries with Hopper but it will make you choose with .o file you want to inspect each time).
