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

Documentation: https://docs.rs/tokio-ar

## Overview

The `tokio-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.

It's a fork of Matthew D. Steele's [`rust-ar`](https://github.com/mdsteele/rust-ar). 🖤
