Create modern archives
Create ZIP, TAR.ZST, TZAP, and 7z archives from one CLI while keeping secure password handling available.
ZManager CLI archiver
ZManager CLI is a practical universal archiver for macOS, Linux, and Windows. It creates modern archives, extracts a broad set of formats safely, and supports .tzap creation and extraction.
The CLI is open source. The macOS GUI is a separate closed-source product boundary and should only be linked here when there is a public release channel.
What it does
- Create ZIP, TAR.ZST, TZAP, and 7z archives.
- Extract many desktop, developer, package, and raw compression formats.
- Use password prompts or stdin instead of command-line password arguments.
- Apply safe extraction checks by default.
Universal archiver with first-class tzap workflows
ZManager CLI is a related open-source archiver for teams and developers who need modern archive creation, broad extraction support, safe extraction defaults, and tzap creation and extraction from one command-line tool.
Extract broad formats
Use one extraction surface for desktop archives, developer packages, raw compression formats, and tzap archives.
Use safe defaults
Prefer prompts and stdin for secrets and apply extraction checks that reduce common path and overwrite risks.
