#### Multi-rule Linux duplicate file & archive scanner with safe hardlink/move

A lightweight Linux alternative to classic multi-rule duplicate finders
inspired by AllDup workflows. Independent open-source Linux project, not
affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Michael Thummerer Software
or Windows software vendors.

COMPOSABLE MULTI-RULE CRITERIA MATRIX

* Match ALL (AND) or ANY (OR) rules across folders with Include/Exclude regex
  and Min/Max file size filters.
* Content Matching: SHA-256, MD5, or exact Byte-for-Byte verification after
  fast partial pre-hashing.
* File & Metadata Rules: Same File Name (with Ignore Extension and
  Case-Insensitive options), Same Extension, Same File Size, Modified Date
  Tolerance (+/- seconds), Same Audio ID3 Artist+Title, and Same Image
  Dimensions (W x H).
* Inside Archive Scanning: inspects entries inside .zip, .7z, .tar, .tar.gz,
  .tar.bz2, .tar.xz, .tar.zst, and .rar archives.

GROUPED TREE RESULTS & SAFE DEDUPLICATION

* Collapsible duplicate group tree with smart selection rules: Keep Shortest
  Name, Keep Longest Name, Keep Deepest/Shallowest Path, Keep Oldest/Newest,
  and Mark All in Folder X.
* Real disk actions: Safe Backup Move, verified os.link Hardlink
  Deduplication (same-device + byte-equality + inode verification), and
  confirmed Delete, plus CSV export.

SAVED PROFILES & AUDIT LOG

* Save and reload named rule profiles in JSON and inspect persistent action
  audit logs, with instant English / Vietnamese interface toggle.
