Please just don't make it sound like an evil warez dood program. It's
a great compression utility ever since... well, it was before '96 that
I remember it was better than ARJ or ZIP and competed with UC2.


> it was invented in Japan IIRC too.

AFAIK it was programmed by Eugene Roshal, who I think I recall is
Ukrainian, but I might be wrong. The official site ( www.rarsoft.com )
itself is run by a company in Finland... well, I don't think there is
anything Japanese about it. ;-)

Bye
Roman
