Version 0.6

📦 Crowware Archiver v0.6 (Pre-release)

This is the first public pre-release of Crowware Archiver, a minimal cross-platform tool for packing, listing, and extracting files using lightweight RLE compression.

🔨 Features

• ✅ Create .cwa archives from arbitrary files
• ✅ List archive contents with file size metadata
• ✅ Extract archive contents to a target directory
• ✅ Compact RLE compression (fast & simple)
• ✅ Cross-platform support (Windows & Linux intended)

⚠️ Known Limitations

• ❗ Not yet tested on Linux — use at your own risk
• ❌ No archive integrity checks or error recovery
• 📁 Flat file storage — no directory structure support (yet)

📁 Usage

cwa c <archive.cwa> <files...>   Create archive  
cwa l <archive.cwa>             List archive  
cwa x <archive.cwa> [outdir]    Extract archive (default: .)  

💡 Notes

• RLE is optimal for simple or repetitive data. Expect modest compression gains on binary blobs.
• Binary is currently CLI-only and minimal by design.
