This is a replacement for xadmaster.library's RAR client which supports
RAR v3 archives.  However, it does not support MS self-extracting RARs
and may be missing some other features.

It is built on top of (a modified version of) RAR_Extractor's simple
unrarlib interface.  Source code is included.

How to identify which version you are running
---------------------------------------------

In the Shell, type xadLibInfo and search for the RAR line:

RAR | ---- | 13 |  2.5  | FILE,EXTERN,FREE(FI)
             ^^    ^^^
             |      |
xadmaster version   client version
 12 = 68k build      1.x = original version
 13 = OS4 build      2.x = RAR3 compatible (this one)
