# universalarchive plugin
Lets you compress files by a command `ua <format> <files>`, supporting various
compression formats (e.g. 7z, tar.gz, lzma, ...).
To enable it, add `universalarchive` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
```zsh
plugins=(... universalarchive)
```
## Usage
Run `ua <format> <files>` to compress `<files>` into an archive file using `<format>`.
For example:
```sh
ua xz *.html
```
this command will compress all `.html` files in directory `folder` into `folder.xz`.
This plugin saves you from having to remember which command line arguments compress a file.
