Rar compression

aONe edited this page Aug 18, 2017 · 25 revisions

Since version 1.1.0, Keka supports RAR compression if the rar binary is found on your machine.

If you don't have the binary on your machine, you can download a trial version here or buy the full version here.

Note you'll need the command line version compiled for Mac OS X/macOS.

Where to put the rar binary

The paths that can be used are these:

  • /bin/rar
  • /usr/local/bin/rar
  • ~/bin/rar

Easy way to put it there

cp <DOWNLOADED_PATH/rar> /usr/local/bin/

Remember to restart Keka.

Many thanks to Alexander Roshal and the RARLAB team for it's great work.
