        Introduction
        ------------ 
        A complete wrapper for the libarchive library generated using SWIG.
        Also included in the package are compatibility layers for the Python
        zipfile and tarfile modules.
        
        Libarchive supports the following:
        
         - Reads a variety of formats, including tar, pax, cpio, zip, xar, lha, ar, cab, mtree, rar, and ISO images.
         - Writes tar, pax, cpio, zip, xar, ar, ISO, mtree, and shar archives.
         - Automatically handles archives compressed with gzip, bzip2, lzip, xz, lzma, or compress.
