- Description
- The ARJ Compressed File Archive (.arj) is a file format used for data compression and archiving. Developed in the early 1990s by Robert Jung, ARJ stands for "Archived by Robert Jung". The format allows for efficient compression of files, supporting multi-volume archives, which means a large archive can be split into several smaller files for easier management and distribution. It also supports a high level of encryption for secure data storage.
- "Tarball" (.TAR file) compressed with .LZMA (Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain Algorithm) compression, and thus uses the compound file extension ".tar.lzma;" often used for distributing linux software packages.
