xcompress a foo.wav /root/bar.txt        # Archive foo.wav and /root/bar.txt to foo.rar
xcompress a -o /tmp/out.7z foo.wav       # Archive foo.wav to /tmp/out.7z
xcompress a -b foo/bar                   # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as small as possible
xcompress a -f foo/bar -r 5              # Archive foo/bar folder to bar.rar as fast as possible and add 5% recovery record
xcompress a -p password foo.wav          # Archive foo.wav to foo.rar with a password
xcompress x foo.rar                      # Extract foo.rar into current working directory
xcompress x foo.tar.gz /tmp/out_folder   # Extract foo.tar.gz into /tmp/out_folder
xcompress x -p password foo.rar          # Extract foo.rar with a password into current working directory
