+File Roller is an archive manager for the GNOME environment. It is only a
+front-end (a graphical interface) to archiving programs like tar and zip.
+The supported file types are:
+
+* Tar archives uncompressed (.tar) or compressed with gzip (.tar.gz , .tgz),
+ bzip (.tar.bz , .tbz), bzip2 (.tar.bz2 , .tbz2), compress (.tar.Z , .taz),
+ lzop (.tar.lzo , .tzo)
+* Zip archives (.zip)
+* Jar archives (.jar , .ear , .war)
+* Lha archives (.lzh)
+* Rar archives (.rar)
+* Single files compressed with gzip, bzip, bzip2, compress, lzop
+
+File Roller also has a document viewer based on bonobo that lets you view files
+of any type for which you have a viewer.
+
+Former WinZip users may find this program useful. It serves the same purpose.
