   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_compression

   Compressing individual files and then archiving would be a tar of gzip-compressed files – this is very uncommon. Archiving various uncompressed files via tar and then compressing yields a compressed archive: a .tar.gz file – this is solid compression. A rough graphical representation. In this example, three files each have a common part ...

4. List of archive formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_archive_formats

   Many archive formats compress the data to consume less storage space and result in quicker transfer times as the same data is represented by fewer bytes. Another benefit is that files are combined into one archive file which has less overhead for managing or transferring. There are numerous compression algorithms available to losslessly compress

5. compress (software) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compress_(software)

   (The tar program in its own does not compress; it just stores multiple files within one tape archive.) Files can be returned to their original state using uncompress.

9. LBR (file format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LBR_(file_format)

   .LBR is an abbreviation of "Library", and, resembling the .tar file format, member files were only stored in the .LBR file, not compressed. As transfer of LBR files by modem was common, it was typical practice for archiving a collection of files to compress them using the SQ or CRUNCH programs then store them in an .LBR archive, or else (more ...
