# mtar - Minitel Archiver
mtar is a file format for storing multiple files in a single file, much like tar, cpio or zip.
## File format
mtar archive files consist of a number of file entries, in the following format:
- 2 bytes file name length
- the file name
- 2 bytes file content length
- the file contents
Archives are terminated either by the end of file, or a record with a name length of zero.
