The ReArchive project is a lightweight C++ library designed for creating, managing, and extracting archive files. It provides a foundation for bundling multiple files and directories into a single archive, ideal for game assets (mod distribution), application deployments, and many more tasks. Included with the library is rsarchive, a command-line application demonstrating ReArchive's capabilities and providing a general-purpose archive management tool.
