guitar [filename]
DESCRIPTION
guiTAR is a generic archive tool written in GTK+, currently supporting
tar, tar.Z, tar.gz, tar.bz2, bzip2-compressed-slp, zip, lzh(lha), arj,
and rar files.
guiTAR can create, view, extract archives or add files to an existing
archive.
guiTAR compiles with GTK+ 1.0.1 to GTK+ 1.2.x with no problems. Also
GNOME support is available.
guiTAR uses tar, gzip, bzip2, zip/unzip, unarj, lha, rar/unrar, and
GNU textutils. Only "sort" is needed from GNU textutils, guiTAR uses
"sort" to reverse-sort the filelist when extracting files from a tar
archive.

guiTAR with various file managers and web browsers.
