The hpack Multi-System Archiver is an archiver that was
written to allow the transfer of archived data to differ-
ent systems. In the past archivers have traditionally
been available for single systems only, for example
PKZIP and LHARC for the IBM PC, Larc for the Amiga,
StuffIt and Compactor for the Macintosh, and tar and
compress for UNIX systems (while these archivers are
available on other systems, their use is not widespread).
Open-keys security included.
