This is the README file for Archive::Rar, the Perl module for creation and manipulation of rar files.

Archive::Rar uses the standard perl module install process

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test (optional but recommended)
make install

This module uses no C-coded parts in itself, but it uses the rar command available under Windsows (WinRar) and Linux. Archive::Rar don't work without that.

Fixes a problem with systems that don't like open files being deleted. It also has an explicit copyright notice so folks like Debian can redistribute it in peace, and an new custodial maintainer due to Calle's suffering Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Get better soon, Calle!

This is the first public version

If you use this module at all, please mail <jmbperl@hotmail.com> and tell me what
you think of it.
