Read more hot tar tar provides the ability to create tar archives, as well as various other kinds of manipulation. For example, you can use tar on previously created archives to extract files, to store additional files, or to update or list files which were already stored. Read more hot Alexandria Archives Alexandria Archives permits you to catalogue your files or directories on CD, Floppy disk, HD, ZIP disk, USB memory, etc. and search for them later. Archery Archery is a script to extract archives intelligently. It always extracts to a single directory or file, whether the archive was prepared that way or not, so you don't have to worry about it making a mess where you are working.

It deduplicates, compresses, and encrypts data prior to transmission, providing total privacy while reducing unnecessary wire traffic. DarGUI DarGUI is a graphical frontend for the Disk ARchiving utility (DAR) that aims to make it easier and quicker to perform common backup tasks using DAR. It uses the GTK+ library, which is installed on most Linux distributions, so usually the only additional dependency is DAR. DarGUI aims to complement and enhance the command line features of DAR rather than conceal them, and to help users to learn how DAR works so that they can use it from the command line when necessary. It is written in Pascal using FreePascal and the Lazarus IDE. deco deco is a generic archive file extractor that has a consistent command line interface. deco-archive deco-archive is a collection of extractor wrappers for the deco file extraction framework. dtrx dtrx intelligently extracts many different archive types. It will get the contents from tar, zip, rpm, deb, and cpio archives, as well as compressed files, with one simple command. Easibox Easibox is a utility for making tar files, zip files and other archive files - these are collectively refered to as "box" file formats. Easibox was written for Linux, but should work fine on any Unix. File Roller File Roller is an archive manager for the GNOME environment. File Roller is only a front-end (a graphical interface) to archiving programs like tar and zip. Read more Flakarchiver Flakarchiver is an archiver utility which has a similar interface to that of WinZip or PowerArchiver. Any Win32 platform (Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP) and Linux is supported. Flatback Flatback is an easy to use filesystem archiver. It supports largefiles, per-file compression, per-file checksumming, and uses a simple binary format. Planned features include resplitting the archive, incremental backups, more robust error handling, and support for extended file attributes. FreeArc FreeArc is a free, modern general-purpose, open source file archiver. This software runs on either a command line or a graphical user interface. The main advantage of FreeArc is that it offers fast but efficient compression combined with a good feature set. Read more FreeTar FreeTar packages the tar command line functionality into a familiar Mac OS X and GNUstep application. fsarchiver fsarchiver is a system tool that allows you to save the contents of a filesystem to a compressed archive file. The filesystem can be restored on a partition that has a different size, and it can be restored on a different filesystem. Unlike tar/dar, fsarchiver also creates the filesystem when it extracts the data to partitions. Everything is checksummed in the archive in order to protect the data. If the archive is corrupt, you just lose the current file, not the whole archive. gcab gcab is a tool and library for manipulating cabinet files. It uses the GObject API and provides GIR bindings. It supports creation of archives with simple MSZIP compression. gnochive gnochive is a GUI frontend for all common archivers under Linux. GnoZip GnoZip is a "WinZip" like archive manipulator. It is a grafical frontend to many compression/archiving utilities as tar, zip, gzip, bzip2, lha, etc. K7Z K7Z is an archiving tool that can be used to create or extract a password-protected archive or update an existing archive. LAR Library Archiver: manipulate archive files in the CP/M LBR (LiBRary) format. It is an updated version of Stephen C. Hemminger's original lcab lcab is a small program for linux that creates a MS Cabinet File from a set of input files. LinTar LinTar is a decompressing tool written in GTK+. Its functionality is similar to the known WinZip for windows. Its aim is to be able to compress/decompress all archive formats in the linux world. LnxZip LnxZip is a Gnome front-end to common archive utilities under Linux/unix. The goal is to provide the end user with a quality tool he/she requires to either work with compressed files or create RPM's. makeself makeself is a small shell script that generates a self-extractible tar.gz archive from a directory. MT-write MT-write enables tar to write multiple files in parallel. The goal thereof is to speed up the proces of extracting a tar file to a filesystem. Multi-threaded writing can improve performance on RAM based filesystems and highly scalable filesystems with multiple spindles. mtftar mtftar is a filter to translate MTF/BKF backup streams from another operating system to the TAR archives used by the rest of the world. nomarch nomarch extracts files from the old `.arc' archive format. It can also list and test such archives. PackdDir utils PackdDir utils can unpack and create PackdDir archives. PackdDir files are famous (?) for being the archive format of Quake (I and II) and others. patool patool is a portable command line archive file manager. PeaZip PeaZip is an archiver tool that supports its native Pea archive format (featuring compression, splitting, and flexible encryption and integrity check schemes) and other mainstream formats, with special focus on handling open formats. It fully supports raw file splitting and joining, 7z, 7zip sfx, Bzip2, Gzip, Pea, Tar, and Zip. It has browse/extract-only support for Z (the format used by the Unix "compress" command). PeaZip doesn't follow the Explorer-like interface paradigm; the interface is more similar to a CD/DVD-burner application. Read more pyReScene pyReScene is a tool that recreates original RARs by backing up the metadata. pysum pysum is a simple PyGTK application for creating and verifying It supports MD5, CRC32, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512. Q7Z Q7Z is an archiving tool that can update existing archives quickly, backup a folder to a storage location, create or extract a protected archive, and increase efficiency by using archiving profiles. ra-suite ra-suite (Reliable Archive Suite) is a set of programs for preparing robust archives of data to be stored on unreliable media (e.g. CD-Rs). It uses parity data like a RAID and checksums to verify data integrity and reconstruct data in corrupted files. rarslave Rarslave is a program that will automatically check, repair, and extract files which are protected by PAR2. RAT Refractor2 Archive Tool: a multiplatform tool for extracting Refractor2 archives shash shash is intended to produce message digests for files, or it can check with the output of a former run whether the message digests are still the same. splittar splittar is a small utility written in Python. It will create multiple tar files from a set of data with each tar file being limited in size. This is useful for archiving data onto removable media such as CD or DVD. Star Star is a POSIX compliant and fast implementation of a tar archiver sync2cd sync2cd is an incremental archiving tool. It allows backing up complete filesystem hierarchies to multiple backup media (e.g. CD-R). Files are archived incrementally, i.e. only new or changed files are stored during an archive operation. All entity types are supported: directories, files, symlinks, named pipes, sockets, block and character devices.
