An archive is an structured file that contains files.
Carlos: I suggest that you look at the variety of implementation of file systems, databases and such, since that definition encompasses many of them.
No. In computer systems, and archive has that precise definition and that is the one I have been referring to during this thread, not other. A zip file is an archive. An rpm file contains an archive, is not an archive. Period. And no, I'm not confused. I'm aware of the methods you mention. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
