Re:Why would ANYONE use RAR?

I hate getting files in RAR, for the precise reason of having to cat them all back together (and it being a hassle due to its proprietary format). I often request a different format or tell the sender that I need a CD send with regular data if they cannot send me a Zip.

Send your friends tgz files back perhaps!
