I am looking for a way to create archives on the commandline with some minimal ASCII interface.
Could be for tar, zip or rar files, but should provide miniml ncurses (or other) "fake" graphical interface. I tried with midnight commander but could not find an entry in the menu to create an archive from selected files.
Also great would be to have an option "archive and test" or even better "arcive and test and delete originals on success".

I've been using Matej's code since the beginning he coded the project, It's handy.
