Archive Viewer is a very simple GUI tool for viewing and extracting archive files of various types. It originated as a system utility included in eComStation (and it remains so to this day). It cannot create archives.

The Archive Viewer can handle the following types of archive file:

  • ZIP archives (*.zip)
  • Unix-style tape archives (*.tar)
  • Both tape archives (above) and single files which have been compressed using 'compress' (*.Z), 'gzip' (*.gz, *.tgz), 'bzip2' (*.bz2) or 'lzip' (*.lz).
  • RAR archives (*.rar)
  • ARJ archives (*.arj)
  • JAR archives (*.jar)
  • 7Z archives (*.7z)
  • LHArc archives (*.lzh, *.lha)
  • WarpIN archives (*.wpi)
  • RPM packages (*.rpm)

Each of these types of archive support requires specific programs to be installed.

This software is distributed as compressed package. You have to download and manually install it; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too.

Manual installation

Self-installing WarpIN package. See below for download link(s). Install specific programs in PATH or into the same Archive Viewer directory.
