SYNOPSIS

       lsar [OPTION]... ARCHIVE...

DESCRIPTION

       List the contents of ARCHIVEs.

OPTIONS

       -l, -long
              Print more information about each file in the archive.

       -L, -verylong
              Print all available information about each file in the archive.

       -t, -test
              Test the integrity of the files in the archive, if possible.

       -p, -password PASSWORD
              The password to use for decrypting protected archives.

       -e, -encoding ENCODING
              The  encoding  to  use  for filenames in the archive, when it is not known.  If not specified, the
              program attempts to auto-detect the encoding used.  Use "help" or "list" as the argument to give a
              listing of all supported encodings.

       -E, -password-encoding ENCODING
              The  encoding  to  use  for the password for the archive, when it is not known.  If not specified,
              then either the encoding given by the -encoding option or the auto-detected encoding is used.

       -pe, -print-encoding
              Print the auto-detected encoding and the confidence factor after the file list.

       -i, -indexes
              Instead of specifying the files to list  as  filenames  or  wildcard  patterns,  specify  them  as
              indexes.

       -j, -json
              Print the listing in JSON format.

       -ja, -json-ascii
              Print the listing in JSON format, encoded as pure ASCII text.

       -nr, -no-recursion
              Do  not  attempt to list the contents of archives contained in other archives.  For instance, when
              listing a .tar.gz file, only list the .tar file and not its contents.

       -h, -help
              Display help information.

       -v, -version
              Print version and exit.
