About ArchCommander
ArchCommander is a tool that helps you manage your archive files. It allows you to perform many operations without unpacking the entire archive file. And of course, you can unpack selected files or everything, and create brand new archives as well as add or remove files from existing archives (if they support modification). Unpacking and creating archives is also possible directly from the Finder, just select the files and use the context menu to select the operation. If you have an archive file created on an operating system that does not use Unicode you can open it in ArchCommander and select the right characters encoding for file names (available for arj, lha/lzh, zip, rar and tar archives). ArchCommander delivers its Quick Look plugin that allows you to display archive file content directly from the Finder, just hit a space bar. Performance improvement for operations with thousands of small files.
