unarchiver |
The Unarchiver is a free data decompression utility, which supports more formats than Archive Utility[1] (formerly known as BOMArchiveHelper), the built-in archive unpacker program in OS X. It can also handle filenames in foreign character sets, created with non-English versions of other operating systems.[2] The latest version requires Mac OS X v10.3.9 or higher. The Unarchiver does not compress files.[3] The corresponding command line utilities unar and lsar run on Microsoft Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.[4]
