XCompress is a free file archiver utility on Linux, providing multi-format archiving to and extracting from ZIP, Z, GZIP, BZIP2, LZ, XZ, LZMA, 7ZIP, TAR, RAR and ZSTD.
EXAMPLES:
xcompress a foo.wav # Archive foo.wav to foo.rar
xcompress a foo.wav /root/bar.txt # Archive foo.wav and /root/bar.txt to foo.rar
xcompress a -o /tmp/out.7z foo.wav # Archive foo.wav to /tmp/out.7z
xcompress a -b foo/bar # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as small as possible
xcompress a -f foo/bar -r 5 # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as fast as possible and add 5% recovery record
xcompress a -p password foo.wav # Archive foo.wav to foo.rar with a password
xcompress x foo.rar # Extract foo.rar into current working directory
xcompress x foo.tar.gz /tmp/out_folder # Extract foo.tar.gz into /tmp/out_folder
xcompress x -p password foo.rar # Extract foo.rar with a password into current working directory
Usage: xcompress [OPTIONS] <COMMAND>
Commands:
x Extract files with full path
a Add files to archive. Excludes base directory from names (e.g. add /path/to/folder, you can always get the "folder" in the root of the archive file, instead of /path/to/folder)
