Compression and decompression in the gzip and zlib formats for Haskell

The Unarchiver is a much more capable replacement for "BOMArchiveHelper.app", the built-in archive unpacker program in Mac OS X. The Unarchiver is designed to handle many more formats than ... [More] BOMArchiveHelper, and to better fit in with the design of the Finder. It can also handle filenames in foreign character sets, created with non-English versions of other operating systems. I personally find it useful for opening Japanese archives, but it should handle many other languages just as well. [Less]

Libarchive is a programming library that can create and read several different streaming archive formats, including most popular tar variants, several cpio formats, and both BSD and GNU ar variants. ... [More] It can also write shar archives and read ISO9660 CDROM images and ZIP archives. The bsdtar program is an implementation of tar(1) that is built on top of libarchive. It started as a test harness, but has grown into a feature-competitive replacement for GNU tar. The bsdcpio program is an implementation of cpio(1) that is built on top of libarchive. [Less]

A managed 7-zip library written in C# which provides data (self-)extraction and compression (all 7-zip formats are supported). It wraps 7z.dll or any compatible one and makes use of LZMA SDK.

Abbrevia is a compression toolkit for Borland Delphi, C++Builder, & Kylix. It supports PKZIP 4, Microsoft CAB, TAR, & gzip formats & the creation of self-extracting archives. It includes visual components that simplify the manipulation of ZIP files.

Checks .Zip files for validity.

AboutMulti Unpacker is a free tool that can recursively extract multiple RAR or ZIP archives. It requires WinRAR on your computer. FeaturesRecursive scanning of folders and sub-folders for archives ... [More] Multi part (split) archive support. Nested archive handling (recursively extract archives that were packed in other archives). Choose whether to replace or to keep existing files. Deletes successfully extracted archives. Good for unpacking large amount of archives when low on disk space. You can cancel the whole process anytime. To request new features create an issue.

Experimental/Academic! Not for Regular Usage Barred is a file archiver with a pure Java implementation of the BWT algorithm combined with certain additional compression stages and performance ... [More] optimization to make the data more compressed. Barred compresses text files much better than other file compressors. Algorithms used in Barred: 1. RLE+BWT(variable block-qsort)+MTF+RLE+ENT(Huffman). It is a text book implementation of these patented algorithms. Check out the respective algorithm page/technical paper or contact the respective author for information on usage for your own implementation. 2. MD5 Message Digest for storing pass phrases. The following tables shows how Barred performs with some text artifacts. For some artifacts, bz2 compression performed marginally better because bz2 is also based on the algorithm sequence used by Barred (BWT+MTF+Huffman). However, Barred is a file archiver and can store more files into a single bar file. The Three Musketeershttp://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/gutbook/lookup?num=1257 Formats Orig.

Barred uses a combination of algorithms like BWT, MTF, RLE, and ENT with different permutations to compress the files for better result. Barred as a file archiver works across multiple platforms with a Java runtime (>=1.6). Download the Barred executable. Some examples of usage: //Compressing java -jar barred.jar -c Ouput.bar java -jar barred.jar -c Ouput.bar //Extracting java -jar barred.jar -x Output.bar Note You need to have Java 1.6 or higher runtime installed. Otherwise, you will get the Java's 'Unsatisfied Link' error.

Ratio: 47.284435 % bps : 4.2172456 bpsExtreme CompressionWhile used Barred, you can manually specify the internal blocks size to override the default block size of 10 MB. Hypothetically, best compression is possible in Barred if the size of the block is same as the size of the file being compressed. For instance, if you want maximum compression for a file of size 4.5 MB, pass the option -b 5 so that the internal sorting block is just one. This will make Barred slow but maximum compression is obtained. However, if you are compressing big files like a 100 MB file with -b 100 option, your machine would not be able to take it and you will most likely get a Out of Memory error because of the exhausted heap size. You can try increasing the heap size by passing -Xms512m -Xmx1024m to the JVM. java -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar barred.jar -c Ouput.bar -b 20Note Higher the block size slower the tool becomes but better is the compression.
