A MAR archive is a utility created by [[PCE]] developer Hampa Hug.<ref>https://macintoshgarden.org/forum/mar-archive</ref> The purpose is to combine features of [[MacBinary]] and [[TAR]], encapsulating the Resource Fork, Data Fork, and Finder data of a classic Macintosh file.

==File Information==
MAR files always contain exactly one item, either a single file or a folder and its contents (including subfolders). By convention archives that contain a file get the extension '''.MAC''' (this is is basically equivalent to a [[MacBinary]] file) and archives that contain a folder get the extension '''.MAR'''. It is the same file format, though.<ref>https://macintoshgarden.org/forum/mar-archive#comment-83867</ref>

==Format Information==
'''MAR''' file will begin with the hex values {{magic|4D415280}}.
