Discussion
Only Garc v1.x supports .GAR files. In v2.x, archives became collections of image files stored in an Access database. In v3.x, the archive features were dropped.

Garc v1.x is a menu-driven DOS program, distributed as shareware. Later versions are for Windows.

Garc lists its website as &lt; http://sound.net/~johnc/garc.html &gt;, but no archives of it seem to exist.

Identification
