Ark (Computing)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ark is an archiving tool for the KDE desktop environment, included into kdeutils package. In graphical computing, a desktop environment (DE) commonly refers to a style of graphical user interface (GUI) that is based on the desktop metaphor which can be seen on most modern personal computers today.These graphical interfaces are designed to assist the user in easily accessing and configuring (or modifying) the most important (or frequently accessed) specific Operating System (OS) packed features, yet it is not meant to give access to the whole vast feature set found in an OS, reason for which the traditional, yet less intuitive, command-line interface (CLI) is still in use when full control over the OS is required.
