Why Convert CUR to TAR file?

TAR is an archive format that bundles multiple files together into one, common on Linux and in development, though on its own it does not compress. Converting CUR to TAR packages your cursor file, or a set of cursors, into a single TAR archive, useful when a system or workflow specifically expects a tarball.

This is aimed at Linux and technical workflows rather than everyday use. Extracting the archive restores the original CUR files. Keep in mind that TAR does not shrink files by itself; for compression it is often paired with gzip. For general sharing on Windows, a ZIP is more practical, but when a system needs a TAR, this conversion provides it.
