A Node library for reading Unix archive files.
- Supports the BSD variant of the common archive format, which is used by BSD ar
and Debian packages.
- I initially wanted to support GNU AR, but I found out that the GNU AR that I installed from GNU binutils through Mac Homebrew does not create GNU AR archives.
- Does not support AIX (big), AIX (small), GNU AR, and other archive variants. If you want support for alternative formats, please make your case in a GitHub issue, or implement it yourself in a PR!
