I replaced a long-winded page which basically duplicated some Java documentation about JAR files with a short stub about the term's meaning in general computing. I reviewed the pages which link here, and a good number of them do so in the context which the page now documents, not its specific use in JAR files (although there are links of that kind as well; but I think they work acceptably with the new contents, too). If you nevertheless think that was misdirected, please add a note here so we can discuss. Thanks.-- era (Talk | History) 20:29, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
Comments for the old Java-specific version
[edit]- "To learn more about digests and signing, see the Signing and Authenticating JAR Files lesson." -> unauthorized copy?

- Not only is it weak, but I expected some mention of the traditional MANIFEST file in linux tarballs, which (I believe) predate Java's usage. 71.249.207.26 (talk) 20:21, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
