The operating systems the archivers can run on without emulation or compatibility layer. Ubuntu's own GUI Archive manager, for example, can open and create many archive formats (including Rar archives) even to the extent of splitting into parts and encryption and ability to be read by the native program.
It handles encrypted *.7z, *.arj, *.lrz, *.rar and *.zip archives. Xarchiver uses the Direct Save Protocol XDS for drag and drop file saving. [14] The program acts as a front-end for various commonly installed libraries dealing with the supported compression formats. [15] [16] Xarchiver can't create archives whose archiver is not installed. [7]
7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as "archives".It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999.
RAR/DOS started as a mix of x86 assembler and C, with the amount of assembly code decreasing over time and moving to pure C/C++ later on. The first versions of WinRAR were written in C, modern versions are using C++. RAR for Android is written as a mixture of Java and C++. WinRAR and the RAR file format have evolved over time.
It is not a free software license. 7-Zip, a free and open-source program, starting from 7-Zip version 15.06 beta [11] can unpack RAR5 archives, using the RARLAB unrar code. PeaZip is a free RAR unarchiver, licensed under the LGPLv3-or-later and via 7-Zip can unpack RAR archives, using RARLAB unrar. [12]
File extension(s) [a] MIME type [b] Official name [c] Platform [d] Description .br application/x-brotli Brotli: all Brotli is a compression algorithm developed by Google for textual web content, and typically achieves higher compression ratios than other algorithms for this use case.
Eugene Roshal unrar (royalty-free license from RarLab/Win.Rar GmbH, source available but subject to restrictions to prevent creating a rar compressor); being released under a non-OSI compliant license it is available as a separate free-of-charge) package on PeaZip Add-ons page, as PeaZip UNRAR5 Plugin.
FreeArc uses LZMA, prediction by partial matching, TrueAudio, Tornado and GRzip [7] algorithms with automatic switching by file type. Additionally, it uses filters to further improve compression, including REP (finds repetitions at separations up to 1gb), DICT (dictionary replacements for text), DELTA (improves compression of tables in binary data), BCJ (executables preproccesor) and LZP ...
