- 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.
- File archive compressed with both .TAR and .BZ2 compression; often found on Unix systems; must first be decompressed (using Bzip 2 decompression), then the files must be extracted from the tar archive.
