From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   Java archive
  
      (jar) A compressed {archive}
      file containing {Java} {class} files, filename extension:
      ".jar".   The {Java Development Kit} contains a tool called
      "jar" for creating .jar files, similar to the standard {Unix}
      {tar} command.   As well as archiving and compressing the Java
      class files, it also inserts a "manifest" file which can
      contain information about the class files, such as a {digital
      signature}.   Combining class files into a single archive file
      makes it possible to download them in a single {HTTP}
      transaction.   This, and the {compression}, speeds up execution
      of Java programs delivered via the {Internet}.
