Description: GTK+ frontend for most used compression formats
Xarchiver is a lightweight desktop independent GTK+ frontend for handling 7z,
apk, arj, bzip, bzip2, bzip3, cab, cb7, cbr, cbt, cbz, chm, compress, cpio,
docx, epub, fbz, gzip, iso, jar, jsonlz4, lha, lrzip, lz4, lzip, lzma, lzop,

replacements for their respective counterparts.
.
Xarchiver allows you to list, test and create archives, add and copy files to
them, extract, delete, cut and drag files from them, edit files in them, and
paste and drop files into them. Password protected 7z, arj, lrzip, rar and
zip archives are supported.
