A rust library for encoding/decoding Unix archive (.a) files.

Documentation: https://docs.rs/ar

## Overview

The `ar` crate is a pure Rust implementation of a
[Unix archive file](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ar_(Unix)) reader and writer.
This library provides a streaming interface, similar to that of the
[`tar`](https://crates.io/crates/tar) crate, that avoids having to ever load a
full archive entry into memory.
