This library is for working with ".tar" archive files. It can read and
write a range of common variations of archive format including V7,
USTAR, POSIX and GNU formats. It provides support for packing and
unpacking portable archives. This makes it suitable for distribution
but not backup because details like file ownership and exact
permissions are not preserved.
The package com.ice.tar implements a tar archive io package.
This package allows you to create, and extract tar archives.
Since the package uses InputStream and OutputStream, it is possible
to combine this package with the java.util.zip package to handle
.tar.gz files.
Archive::Extract is a generic archive extraction mechanism.
It allows you to extract any archive file of the type .tar, .tar.gz, .gz
or .zip without having to worry how it does so, or use different
interfaces for each type by using either perl modules, or command line
tools on your system.
lzop is a file compressor which is very similar to gzip. It uses the LZO
library for compression services and its main advantages over gzip are much
higher compression and decompression speed (at the cost of some compression
ratio).
lzop is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License
(GPL).
The macutils collection can handle a number of different Macintosh
file formats including Binhex, MacBinary, AppleSingle and

Check out the man pages and /usr/local/share/doc/macutils (or
equivalent on your system) for more information.

PEAR::File_Archive is strongly object oriented. It makes it very easy to use,
writing simple code, yet the library is very powerful.
It lets you easily read or generate tar, gz, tgz, bz2, tbz, zip, ar (or deb)
archives to files, memory, mail or standard output.
See http://poocl.la-grotte.org for a tutorial.
Parallel XZ is a compression utility that takes advantage of running LZMA
compression of different parts of an input file on multiple cores and
processors simultaneously.
Its primary goal is to utilize all resources to speed up compression time
with minimal possible influence on compression ratio.
Attic is a deduplicating backup program written in Python. The main goal of
Attic is to provide an efficient and secure way to backup data. The data
deduplication technique used makes Attic suitable for daily backups since only
the changes are stored.
