## Useful for

- Extract a multi-volume or encrypted RAR/7z archive from Finder's right-click menu
- Create a password-protected 7z or ZIP with AES-256 without leaving the desktop
- Browse inside an ISO, DEB or DMG and pull out individual files

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-14 (UTC), 00:37–02:54: 89 → 89 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 89 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #200.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 7
- Issues and pull requests: 9
- Watchers: 3
- Average over the last week: 15 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
