PeaZip 1.6 - file archiver for Linux and Windows

Submitted by giorgiotani on Tue, 2007-04-10 04:30. Bag of Software

PeaZip is a cross platform archiver, released under LGPL for Linux and Windows, developed using Lazarus/FreePascal.
Basically it acts as frontend for console archiving utilities, like p7zip and Matt Mahoney's PAQ, supporting many archive formats and offering a wide range of features about archiving, multi-volume spanning, compression and encryption.

The application is focused in speeding up archive definition, allowing to save and import filelists as archive's layout, and to bridging the gap between console and GUI worlds allowing to export most of the jobs as command lines in order to promote the knowledge of the syntax of underlying applications and to speed up script definition.
Linux versions are released as .tar.gz packages containing precompiled, self contained binaries (if on your system a dependency is not satisfied, please follow the instructions of your software package manager to install needed libraries) and also all the needed third part binaries; just extract the package in the path you prefer, even remote or removable, and run peazip binary to start the application.
System integration is possible through .desktop files provided along with simple instructions in /FreeDesktop_integration folder (in the program's path), for all desktop environments following FreeDesktop standards, like Gnome and KDE.
