Product Description:

SimplyRAR is a Cocoa based file compression utility based on the very popular RAR file archive compression utility. RAR compresses data files extremely well compared to others that are available on the market but lacks a good GUI for use on the Macintosh. SimplyRAR aims to fill this void making it a pleasure to use this great archive compression utility. SimplyRAR will not only make rar compression archives but will also unrar archives too, other features include the ability to add a comment to the archive (useful to add instructions etc.), password protect archives, you can also create spilt volume archives making it easy to transfer packages. SimplyRAR is also capable of Testing the integrity of archive Set that you create. SimplyRAR will also let you set the compression level, ranging from storing files to very compact small archives. SimplyRAR is also able to create Par2 redundancy sets allowing users to repair incomplete or damaged archive files. At the moment SimplyRAR is not yet capable of using the par2 files to fix archive sets but this feature will appear in future releases. Above all it's free...

SimplyRAR Troubleshooting ReportJust one problem - Version: 1.0.8, 7/12/2006 11:48AM PST

This is the only program I've found for Mac that will actually create and split rar files, so it's a great help. The only thing I've found that doesn't work is the option to split rar files into 100mb parts. I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but I've tried reinstalling a couple of times with no luck... hopefully it will be fixed in a future update.

I like the GUI. It's well done and easy to use.

But, the person who posted earlier is correct....

While the Application is Universal Binary, all of the processes that it uses on the back end are PowerPC.

I've only used it a couple of times so far but it works like a charm. Small file size too.
Recommend it for the just-want-it-to-work-with-a-minimum-of-tinkering crowd.
No documentation included but none was needed for my simple purposes.
