rar

The RAR archiver. Supports multi-volume archives that can be optionally self-extracting.

More information.

• Archive 1 or more files:

rar a {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/file1} {path/to/file2} {path/to/file3}

• Archive a directory:

rar a {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/directory}

• Split the archive into parts of equal size (50M):

rar a -v{50M} -R {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/file_or_directory}

• Password protect the resulting archive:

rar a -p{password} {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/file_or_directory}

• Encrypt file data and headers with password:

rar a -hp{password} {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/file_or_directory}

• Use a specific compression level (0-5):

rar a -m{compression_level} {path/to/archive_name.rar} {path/to/file_or_directory}
