RAR Expander is a free and open source Mac OS X program that extracts the files contained in RAR archives. RAR Expander supports both single and multi-part archives, and has support for password-protected archives as well.

RAR Expander uses the official unRAR library internally so it is fully compatible with archives produced by WinRAR.

RAR Expander also features AppleScript support, and includes a few useful example scripts for expanding multiple archives at once.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Updated unrar core to latest version (v3.60).
· When entering a password for password-protected archives, the password can now be copy/pasted using the edit menu (and the standard shortcut key).
· Added a checkbox to the password entry window so that the password can optionally be shown while typing.
· Fixed bug: the cleanup of the temporary surrounding folder failed when extracting empty archives or pressing cancel for password-protected archives, causing RAR Expander to think it was still extracting the archive.
· Added an additional "using password" argument to the "expand" AppleScript command to script expansion of password-protected archives.
· The Finder now recognizes files with extensions "01" and "001" as files that can be opened with RAR Expander by double clicking them.
