### A `Phar::unlinkArchive` example

    <?php
    // simple usage
    Phar::unlinkArchive('/path/to/my.phar');

    // more common example:
    $p = new Phar('my.phar');
    $fp = fopen('phar://my.phar/file.txt', 'r');
    // this creates 'my.phar.gz'
    $gp = $p->compress(Phar::GZ);
    // remove all references to the archive
    unset($p);
    fclose($fp);
