This archive contains multifunctional integrated archive manager
Archiver RAR version 1.51
RAR features:
o RAR introduces a NEW and original compression algorithm. It
allows higher compression ratios than other PC archiving tools,
especially on executable files, Object libraries, large text
files, etc.
o RAR offers NEW facilities and features such as a full-screen
interactive interface utilizing mouse and menus as well as the
command line interface.
o RAR provides functionality for creating a 'solid' archive, which
can raise the compression ratio 10% - 50% over more common
methods, when packing large numbers of small files.
o RAR gives the user, using the full-screen mode, the ability to
manage non-RAR archives (.ZIP, .ARJ, .LZH). The user may view
update, transform to self-extracting (SFX) archive, add and
erase comments, specify temporary work directory, etc.
o RAR offers the ability to create and change (SFX) archives.
o RAR offers the ability to create multi-volume archive as SFX.
o RAR offers a number of service functions, such as setting a
password, adding archive and file comments. Damaged archives
may be repaired and an archive may be locked to prevent further
changes. Authenticity information may be added for additional
security and RAR will store information on the last update and
name of the archive.
o RAR provides ANSI esc-sequence support in comments. This
allows color comments and other ANSI features without the need
for an ANSI-driver.
