- Description
- An LHA compressed file format that uses the Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm. It began on the Amiga platform but has since grown to be used in other platforms. It is very similar to Gzip as the same lz77 compression codec is applied.
- Tar archive created by tar, a Unix-based utility used to package files together; contains multiple files stored in an uncompressed format; commonly compressed into a .GZ file using GNU Zip compression.
