Archive tools

Create, inspect, test and extract TAR, ZIP and GZIP directly on the hosting account without system archive utilities.

Use TAR for an uncompressed file tree, ZIP for compressed folders and GZIP for one compressed file. Inspect or test an archive before extraction, and enable replacement or source deletion only when you intend it.

Preparing a folder backup? tar keeps files together without compression; zip can create a compressed archive. Inspect and test an archive before extracting it, and do not remove the source until the result is verified.
