# RDAR

RDAR stands for Reduced Disk Archive Format and serves to be a minimal bundle format (similar to tar) for various applications, primarily operating system initial ramdisks. RDAR does not intend to replace existing formats and instead aims to provide a potential alternative to them for minimalists.

## Building

Install ![bop](https://git.faracom.org/chloe/bop) and run ``BOP_BUILD=core bop build``

## Format

The format is simple:

```
