Open Source, Cross Platform, and Free.

Also written in Lazarus/FreePascal...

Project Goals #2:

"Bring focus on Lazarus/FreePascal

I'm developing PeaZip project in FreePascal language, under Lazarus IDE. I like Pascal-related languages and I think Lazarus/FreePascal is one of the best cross-platform IDE available; I like it even more because it is open source and because it's growing day by day in a more mature and powerful IDE. I'll be glad to bring a bit of developer's attention on Lazarus/FreePascal through my project."

Delphi may be dead(*), but Lazarus/FreePascal is very much alive and kicking...

More power to you, oh-as-of-yet-unknown WinZip/WinRar open source replacement-writing author!!!

Tried installing peazip just the other day and was surprised that it wasn't available via apt. It's available via 'cnet downloads'. So... NOPE.

It's available via OSDN.net as well. Available as a .deb for GTK+ and Qt and also a portable file.

The primary download is from OSDN. CNET is just an available mirror.

Also from the same site.

It is a long list but don't forget that many of those list (Microsoft Office, OpenDocument) are just standard zip files with a different extension.
