It is part of ''CarComp'', a collection of utilities that was distributed as shareware. ''CarComp'' is apparently also the name of the company that developed it.<br /> <br /> ''CAR'' stands for something along the lines of ''Compressed Archiver''. Despite the name, .car files are not compressed. It's expected that you might compress them with [[Gzip]] or a similar utility, in which case the '''.caz''' file extension is suggested.<br /> <br /> == Identification ==<br /> .car files have no signature, and can't easily be identified from their contents.<br /> <br /> == Software ==<br /> * [{{SACFTPURL|pack|carcom11.zip}} CarComp] (1994?) - Includes binaries for DOS and Sun/SPARC.</div>
