Overview: CmdLine-Archivers

• This is a collection of various command-line archiving tools ported to iPodLinux.
• Some of these have been recompiled while others are directly copied from their pre-compiled sources since they do not require recompilation.
• md5sum, sha1sum and sum have been added via busybox.
• For information on what each binary does, see their respective links below.

Usage:

• Since the "Bin" has been added to $PATH, all binaries are accessible to the shell and terminal. Thus they can be used in shell scripts or via the terminal module.
• Hold the centre/select button on an item in the file browser to access the archiving options.
• Note that bzip2 requires a bit of memory so if you are unable to compress with bzip2, reboot your iPod and try again. lpaq4 requires a lot of free memory (6MB for level 0 and 12MB for 1) and thus will not work with any GUI overhead (use from ZeroLauncher).
• lpaq4 was not ported to be functional but rather as a proof-of-concept port. While the compression level may be higher than bzip2 or gzip, do not expect it to be useful nor fast ; )
