It was developed by Frederic Taes and TSF SoftWare, and distributed as freeware. The name is probably derived from &quot;Solid archives with ARJ&quot;, or something like that.<br /> <br /> == Discussion ==<br /> SARJ produces two uncompressed files, with extensions .DIR and .SLD, and puts them in a compressed archive, using an external [[ARJ]] utility. The theory is that a single large file usually compresses better than multiple small files.<br /> <br /> The .DIR file is a text-based file formatted like a directory listing. The .SLD file is apparently just a raw concatenation of the files in the archive.<br /> <br /> SARJ has some sort of support for archive formats other than ARJ/SRJ, but more research is needed to understand the nature of that support.<br /> <br /> == Identifiers ==<br /> The documentation says that in SARJ v1.12, the default filename extension of its ARJ-based files was changed to .SRJ. It doesn't say what it was changed ''from'' (maybe just .ARJ?).<br /> <br /> == Links ==<br /> * [{{SACFTPURL|pack|sarj121.exe}} SARJ v1.21]</div>
