Software > File identification software > IDArc

IDArc is an open source DOS program for identifying archiving and compression formats. It was developed by Jürgen Peters.

Some of its format knowledge has been incorporated into the File command's database.

[edit] External links

IDArc version 2.15.03 (2004-02-02) apparently exists, but has not been located.
