dar (disk archive) is a computer program, a command-line archiving tool[4] intended as a replacement for tar in Unix-like operating systems.

[citation needed] There are GUI frontends for dar called: A text-mode browser/extractor: plugin for dar files in mc (Midnight Commander).

A scheduler / command-line frontend known as SaraB allows the Towers of Hanoi, Grandfather-Father-Son, or any custom backup rotation strategy, and modifications are available for PAR file support.

Extended versions known as bzSaraB and baras are also available.
