What is it?
===========
Xarchiver is the ultimate solution for handling archives on Linux and FreeBSD.
It's a Desktop Environment independent archiver front end. All common archive
formats are supported, deb and RPM packages are handled without their package
managers being installed. Xarchiver only depends on the GTK+ libraries and
utilizes various (de)compressor/(un)archiver command-line programs at runtime.
Installation of xdg-utils is optional but installing it will allow Xarchiver
to support opening more file types directly from inside an archive.

How to use it
=============
Please read the documentation accessible from the Help menu.

How to compile
==============
./configure                      # (run './configure --help' for more details)
make

How to install (as root)
========================
make install
