Currently when extracting the WordPress latest.tar.gz file from shell it extracts it inside a /wordpress/ folder.

How would I get it so it just places the files in the actual current directory?

    In a first step gunzip the file:

    gunzip latest.tar.gz
    

    The latest.tar file remains.
    To extract that to working folder use

    tar -x --xform s/wordpress// -f latest.tar
