Short Description
Bruce Guenter <bruceg@em.ca>
Version 0.5

This package contains an archiver, similar to tar, but designed specifically to improve on some of the deficiencies that tar has.
Right now the implementation is pretty bare bones, but it is being released as a kind of "proof of concept" in the hopes of getting some feedback on the concepts and/or preliminary implementation.
