Download PeaZip 6.8.0

Version 6.8.0 of PeaZip has been released. This archiving program is made available under an open source license, and downloads are available for Windows and Linux. The program aims to distinguish itself from the competition by specializing in safety. Encrypting data is therefore one of the main functions of the proprietary system pea format. PeaZip can create 7z, bz2, gz, paq/lpaq, pea, quad, tar, upx and zip files, and extract various file formats including ace, arj, cab, deb, iso, lha , rar and rpm. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

backend

• Created general purpose dragdropfilesdll.dll to handle drag and drop from application to Windows 32 and 64 bit systems, built from DragDropLazarus Lazarus package (which is required only for compiling the dll), which is based on work of Angus Johnson & Anders Melander (on Delphi), and Michael Köcher / six (on Lazarus)

File manager

• (Windows) Added native drag and drop from application to system
• (Windows) File copy / move / recycle operations are performed in standard GUI dialogs

Extraction and archiving

• (Windows) New native drag and drop extraction
  • On native drag and drop extraction, extra level of directory nesting are automatically removed (unless browsing archive in flat or search mode)
  • Old custom drag and drop extraction is still available as alternative in Options > Settings > General
