XArchive

A GTK+ frontend for various command line archivers. XArchive is GTK+ graphical frontend that uses external wrappers to communicate with the command line archiving tools. This makes adding support for a new archive format a simple matter of writting a wrapper for that format's command line tool and putting it in XArchive's wrapper directory.
Depending on the capabilities of the command line tool, XArchive can handle creation, extraction and manipulation of archives.
Currently there are bash shell wrappers for:
tar, rar, zip, 7zip, arj, deb, rpm and ace.
(ace support using program unace, so extraction only.
deb and rpm support is also extraction only. To keep things
sane the appropriate packaging tools should be used to
modify deb's and rpm's.)
