- Description
 - The RPM file format, associated with the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM), is a package management system primarily used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and its derivatives like Fedora and CentOS. An RPM file is essentially a container for software or data that allows for easy installation, upgrading, and removal of software on a Linux system. It encapsulates compiled software, metadata about the package such as its version, architecture, and dependencies, and configuration files necessary for the software to run correctly.
 - An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
