- README.DOC August 1997
-
-
- This archive contains JAR shareware version 1.02.
-
- The non-evaluation use of JAR in a business, commercial, government or
- institutional environment requires a license.
-
- This software as originally released by ARJ Software, Inc. came "sealed"
- in an ARJ self-extracting archive with an ARJ-SECURITY envelope to
- prevent tampering. Re-archival of this software will destroy this
- security feature "seal".
-
-
- MAJOR FEATURES OF JAR INCLUDE:
-
- Native DOS, Windows 95, and Windows NT support.
-
- The ability to process and archive over 50,000 files at one time.
-
- JAR provides excellent file compression in terms of resulting archive
- size and speed. Compared to the popular archivers, PKZIP, RAR, UC2, and
- ARJ, JAR provides typically better compression.
-
- JAR has the option to create multiple volume archives with one command
- making JAR useful for making backups to multiple floppies or archiving a
- very large file to several floppies without "SLICE"ing. JAR can also
- concatenate multiple volumes into one volume.
-
- A myriad of commands and options to provide outstanding flexibility in
- archiver usage.
