and it works smoothly but in command Line mode.
Commands:
a add files to archive
c add comment to archive
ch modify archive (recompress, encrypt and so on)
create create new archive
cw write archive comment to file
d delete files from archive
e extract files from archive ignoring pathnames
f freshen archive
j join archives
k lock archive
l list files in archive
lb bare list of files in archive
lt technical archive listing
m move files and dirs to archive
mf move files to archive
r recover archive using recovery record
rr add recovery record to archive
s convert archive to SFX
t test archive integrity
u update files in archive
v verbosely list files in archive
x extract files from archive
