gollark: Muahahaha. Now I just need to implement "compress", and also any incremental compression whatsoever.
gollark: This was partly ironic. It is horrible and inconsistent. The rules vary and are not obvious. There is an unofficial standard but not everything supports it, most things add extra stuff on, and you need 3000 lines of parser code to support it.

gollark: Somehow designing the CLI is harder than writing the actual archiver code.
