# RDAR
RDAR stands for Reduced Disk Archive Format and serves to be a minimal bundle format (similar to tar) with CRC32 checksumming
for various applications including: operating system initial ramdisks, file sharing / archival, package management, etc.
RDAR does not intend to replace existing formats and instead aims to provide a potential alternative to them for minimalists.
## Building
Simply run ``make`` and that's it !!
## Format
The format is simple:
```
0: root [points to root data region (rdr)]
/
/
0~ [DATA DESCRIPTOR] ---------+ OFFSET
1~ [DATA DESCRIPTOR] -------- |---+ OFFSET
2~ [FILE] <------------------+ |
3~ [FILE] <----------------------+
```
