 | | On Amigas, the standard archive format is LHA, while on Apple Macintosh computers, Stuffit is among the most common. | | | In computing, an archive is a bundle of other files contained in one file itself. | | | On Windows platforms, the most widely-used archive format by far is ZIP; other popular formats are RAR, and ARJ. |

| | Nevertheless, software for creating archives, or extracting files from archives, in the format common to one operating system can often be found on other operating systems. | | | The data fork is analogous to a UNIX or DOS file; it is a stream of bytes, the format of which is known to the application that created it. | | | Different archive formats have evolved to support the characteristics of files and directories/folders of different operating systems. |

| | Keys to the kingdom - Penn Printout, Feb 95 |
| | The disadvantage to these self-extracting archives is that, since they are binary executables, they cannot be unarchived on other operating system platforms without software emulation of the operating system under which they were created. | | | The most popular file formats are archive formats, which are designed to maintain some external features of a collection of files, most often their placement in a directory structure. | | | Fortunately, it is usually possible to identify a file format by the filename extension, and that, combined with a knowledge of which program can decipher the file format, will allow you to manually convert the file into something usable. |

| | Archive file formats and archivers |
| | As an example, a tar archive of many smaller files compressed with gzip is typically compressed better than a zip file with the same entries, although both use the Deflate algorithm. | | | Archives are files that store other files in them, plus information on those files. | | | Some archivers also rearrange the input files in the solid archive in a way to have all files of a certain data type to be adjacent, which sometimes improves compression ratio even more. |

| | GNU tar 1.15.1: Formats |
| | Like any other file, an archive file can be written to a storage device such as a tape or disk, sent through a pipe or over a network, saved on the active file system, or even stored in another archive. | | | The binary and old ASCII formats have a max path length of 256, and the new ASCII and CRC ASCII formats have a max path length of 1024. | | | An old GNU format header uses the space used by the prefix field in a POSIX header, and cumulates information normally found in a GNU extra header. |

| | Best Archive Tool - DonationCoder.com |
| | From our research, we found this due primarily to the LZMA format which is under active development and revision rather than specific to any one program using 7z format. | | | RAR is a proprietary format compared to 7z, which is Open Source, but both are being actively developed. | | | There are numerous formats (compression algorithms) that have been written over the last three decades, but the three most popular today on the Windows platform are ZIP (by far the most common), RAR (gaining popularity), and the relatively new 7z, which addresses some of ZIP's weaknesses and limitations and aims to succeed ZIP. |

| | Using this archive format allows reordering and/or exclusion of schema elements at the time the database is restored. | | | This is the most flexible format in that it allows reordering of data load as well as schema elements. | | | (This is an inherent limitation of the tar file format.) Therefore this format cannot be used if the textual representation of a table exceeds that size. |

| | File Compression and Decompression |
| | Many file archive/compression formats were originally platform- specific and continue to be associated with a particular computer platform or operating system. | | | When using such utilities, rembember that while you may be able to decompress a file on a computer other than its native platform, you may not be able to use it. | | | However, application programs written for PC/DOS computers or Macs will only run on those machines, even though it is possible to decompress them on other types of computers. |

| | We can think of it, and other archive files, as a container into which we squish one or more files, reducing their size as they are added to the file. | | | Self-extracting archives usually work by including a decompression program with the archive, and this program itself can be infected. | | | There are a number of other archive formats to consider, including ACE, CAB, LHA, RAR for the PC, as well as Unix formats such as B2 and TBZ. |
