PeaZip

PeaZip is an OS-portable archiver tool; it supports it's native Pea archive format (featuring compression, splitting and flexible encryption and integrity check schemes) and other mainstream formats, with especial focus on handling open formats. Full support: 001 (raw file split/join), 7z, 7zip sfx, Bzip2, Gzip, Pea, Tar, Zip; Browse/extract-only support: Z.

    PeaZip doesn't follow the Explorer-like interface paradigm; the interface is more similar to a CD/DVD-burner application, allowing the user to:
  • save and restore layout of archives (input files and folders list) to speed up definition of archiving and backup operations;
  • save job definition (as plain text, to be used in any script language);
  • have a detailed job log after each operation;
The interface is fully skinnable (skins can be customised and saved as plain text to be re-edited as freely as possible) and uses customisable transparency. The program doesn't need to be installed/unistalled, it can run from any path (even remote; a writeable path is recommended), however Windows version is released both as a standalone binary and as a fully automated installer/uninstaller package, allowing tight system integration to use PeaZip right from Explorer. PeaZip basically acts as a graphic frontend for Pea executable (graphical) from the same Author and for Igor Pavlov's 7za executable, that can run in console mode or trough a graphical wrapper to allow more user-friendly handling of output information.
