Moreover, the 7-Zip's "own" format, 7z, often compresses even somewhat better than RAR. - Ramillies ( Sat 28-May-16 11:27:40 ) +1 Yeah, but .7z (lzma) is also a fast compression method (n/t) - Sudo ( Sun 29-May-16 06:30:18 ) +1 Sorry, I posted it accidentally... - Sudo ( Sun 29-May-16 06:38:07 ) +1 Yes, there is virtually no use for rar, except for that some people like to use it. - Ramillies ( Sun 29-May-16 09:34:08 ) +1 One file! Didn't notice it when I use the tar command, hehe. - Sudo ( Mon 30-May-16 07:29:12 ) +1 Yeah, tar does it for you. - Ramillies ( Mon 30-May-16 07:53:49 )
