What is SHAR file format?

SHAR files are compressed archives created by Unix Shell Archive Program. They can store multiple files in one archive and compress them with a shell script. This script allows the files to be recreated by running a command. SHAR files are different from other archivers because they need the UNIX Bourne shell to work properly. They are also called self extracting compressed files. SHAR files are text files that can create other compression utilities. They are command-line driven programs that need a specific SHAR command to execute. SHAR files can also copy the functions of a UNIX script, making them important shell scripts. To unpack SHAR files, type “sh filename.shar”.

To open a .shar file, double-click it and Windows will launch the right application. If not, you may have to download or buy the correct application. Or you may have to set up the file associations correctly. This means telling Windows which application to use for .shar files. Once you do that, opening a .shar file will open the correct application.

What is EMZ file format?

The EMZ file format is a bitmap image format associated with Microsoft Windows. It is an enhanced version of the Windows Metafile (WMF) format and includes the same vector and raster imagery as WMF files, with the addition of compression and additional image information. EMZ files are often used by Microsoft applications such as Word and PowerPoint to store vector images. EMZ files can be opened using many image viewers, including Microsoft Office and Adobe Illustrator, as well as popular image editing programs such as Adobe Photoshop. As with other image formats, EMZ files support various color depths and file sizes, allowing for relatively small images, as well as high-resolution images with millions of colors. Although EMZ files are generally smaller than WMF, their compression does not necessarily lead to a good quality image. As with any compressed format, the quality of the image depends on the degree of compression used, so it is important to use the appropriate settings when compressing an EMZ file. In general, EMZ files are best used for graphic images that do not need to be modified, such as logos and other types of corporate artwork. They are also suitable for use in presentations where the quality of the image is not critical.
