PeaZip 9.9.0 is ready for download, see the full change log!
WHAT IS PEAZIP
PeaZip is an Open Source, cross-platform (BSD, Linux, macOS, Windows) archive manager and file manager utility, written with Lazarus / FreePascal IDE, which works as a command line scripts generation engine for 7z/p7zip, Brotli, Zpaq, Zstd and other open source archiving and compression tools.
This allows either to use PeaZip as an interactive GUI application, or to save tasks as batch CLI scripts for later use - for fine tuning beyond GUI’s capabilities, learning the syntax, or re-use and automation purposes.
WHAT’S NEW IN THIS RELEASE
PeaZip 9.9.0 adds the ability to drag and drop extract content from file browser to any folder in left sidebar, which shows Bookmarks, History, and filesystem treeview.
A quick extraction link is now displayed on the right of the toolbar, to extract all or selected content to current path (optionally to new folder/smart new folder).
Backends are updated to 7z 24.07, Zstd 1.5.6, and Pea 1.19, which allows to specify a variable number of KDF rounds (up to 20 millions) to further improve security against brute forcing.
NOTES
Sources are compiled with new Lazarus 3.4, and are still compatible with Lazarus 2.x line; please note that for building the app it is now necessary to add “metadarkstyle” package to the IDE before compiling “peazip” and “pea” binaries, which can be scripted as:
lazbuild --add-package (peazip sources path)/dev/metadarkstyle/metadarkstyle.lpk
