- Description
- Compact Pro Archive (.cpt) is a compressed archive format used on classic Mac OS, created by the Compact Pro compression utility. It bundles multiple Macintosh files—including resource forks—into a single compressed archive, and served as a popular alternative to StuffIt in the early 1990s.
- A ZIP file is an archive that contains one or more files compressed or "zipped" using Zip compression. It stores files separately from each other allowing the files to be compressed using different methods and extracted without compressing or decompressing the entire archive.
