(Lossless, for generic data + file archives)
Contents |
Archiving only
(many files => 1 file, no compression attempted)
- AR file format (.a, .lib) -- Unix Archiver (ar) format as used by various compilers/linkers
- ARC (Internet Archive) (.arc)
- BagIt
- BinHex (.hqx)
- CPIO (.cpio)
- LBR (.lbr)
- Lynx (archiver) (Commodore) (.lnx)
- Tape Archive (.tar)
Compression + archiving
(Multiple files => 1 file, makes it smaller. See Compression for formats that compress single files/streams)
- 7z (.7z)
- ACE (.ace)
- ARC (.arc)
- ARC (FreeArc) (.arc)
- ARC (Web archiving) (.arc.gz) See ARC (Internet Archive)
- Apple Disk Image
- ARJ
- BRU - (RSX-11M backup)
- Cabinet (.cab)
- DWC (.dwc)
- IMP (.imp)
- Jar (.j, .jar) => this is just a renamed zip file with some mandatory files
- LHAv (.lzh, .lha)
- PMA (.pma)
- RAR (.rar)
- Softlib (Softdisk Publishing)
- Spark (.spk)
- Stuffit (.sit)
- Stuffit X (.sitx)
- WARC (.warc, .warc.gz)
- ZIP (.zip)
- ZOO (.zoo)
Self-extracting archives
(in addition, some of the other archivers are able to produce executable files for some platform which include the archived data and a program to extract them, and generally have the file extension normal for executables, such as .exe for DOS/Windows)
