NAME
     xarchiver - GTK+ front end for archive management

SYNOPSIS
     xarchiver [OPTION] [archive]

DESCRIPTION
     Xarchiver	is a lightweight, desktop environment independent GTK+ front end
     for handling 7z, a (libraries),  aab,  apk,  AppImage,  arj,  bzip,  bzip2,
     bzip3, cab, cb7, cbr, cbt, cbz, chm, compress, cpio, docx, epub, exe (self-
     extracting  Windows  archives),  fbz,  gzip, iso, jar, jsonlz4, lha, lrzip,
     lz4, lzip, lzma, lzop, mozlz4, odt, oxt, rar, rzip,  snap,  squashfs,  tar,
     xpi,  xz,	zip,  zpaq,  zstd,  tar.bz,  tar.bz2,  tar.bz3, tar.gz, tar.lrz,
     tar.lz, tar.lz4, tar.lzma, tar.lzo,  tar.rz,  tar.xz,  tar.Z,  tar.zst  and
     (without their package managers) deb and rpm files.
     It  recognizes  file  types  by their file signature (magic number), not by
     their extension, and uses various (de)compressor/(un)archiver command  line
     programs  at  runtime. It allows 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 and will be recognized.
