EXAMPLES:

xcompress a foo.wav                      # Archive foo.wav to foo.rar

xcompress a foo.wav /root/bar.txt        # Archive foo.wav and /root/bar.txt to foo.rar

xcompress a -o /tmp/out.7z foo.wav       # Archive foo.wav to /tmp/out.7z

xcompress a -b foo/bar                   # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as small as possible

xcompress a -f foo/bar -r 5              # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as fast as possible and add 5% recovery record

xcompress a -p password foo.wav          # Archive foo.wav to foo.rar with a password

xcompress x foo.rar                      # Extract foo.rar into current working directory

xcompress x foo.tar.gz /tmp/out_folder   # Extract foo.tar.gz into /tmp/out_folder

xcompress x -p password foo.rar          # Extract foo.rar with a password into current working directory

Usage: xcompress [OPTIONS]
