--- About the client ---
This client lets XAD view and extract RPM Package Manager (.RPM) files. You
may also know this as "RedHat Package Manager" files. When you extract the
file, you will only find a single file, ending in ".cpio". This is because
an RPM file is just some special headers and a .cpio.gz archive. RPM will
automatically do the gzip decompression, but it can't directly examine the
.cpio archive for the same reason XAD can't directly look at the .tar part
of a .tar.gz archive. If this bugs you, use Voodoo-X :)
