It also runs on MS Windows & Mac OS X, and Android support is also planned. ‘B1′ adds itself into Nautilus’ context menu, so you can create archives pretty easily as well. I re-compressed some extracted data into ‘b’, with compression ratio set at maximum, though the output size was slightly higher, it was more than forgivable, as the ‘b1’ archive creation time was also slightly faster. I also extracted a reasonably large ‘7z’ archive & was impressed by its speed too.Īs mentioned, it has an archive container format called ‘b1’ that uses the ‘LZMA’ data compression algorithm. I tested it on Ubuntu 12.10 (64-bit) and it ran pretty smoothly. You can also change file associations, default ‘open action’ & few more settings using the ‘Settings’ window as well. ‘B1’ also lets you ‘Pause/Resume’ while creating or extracting archives, split, adds encryption (AES 256-bit) once a password is added, change compression levels, test archives, has a file manager etc. But please remember that, currently ‘B1’ can only read ‘7z’, ‘Rar’, ‘Zip/Zipx’, a format of its own called ‘b1’ & can create an archive using ‘b1’ or ‘Zip’ formats, other format support will be added in the future. This is why I liked ‘B1’ almost immediately, because it has a pretty simple UI that is easy to use.

One can easily add support for these formats under most distributions, including Ubuntu by installing other file archive managers such as ‘PeaZip’ or using command-line tools. ![]() By default, GNU/Linux support ‘Zip’ but doesn’t support ‘Rar’ due to its ‘pure’ proprietary nature & ‘7z’ support is also dropped due to file permission incompatibly, though it’s an open-source format. The source code, Windows EXE, Ubuntu DEB, Fedora RPM packages are available in sourceforge pageįor Ubuntu 13.04, Ubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 14.04 and higher, you may need the libgmp3c2 package.‘B1 Archiver’ is a completely free file archive manager that can be used in GNU/Linux for opening ‘7z’, ‘Rar’ & ‘Zip’ file formats. Implemented extract/archive to original input folder: multiple input files from different paths can be extracted/archived each in its own path in a single pass.“Extract all to” starts from input folder (or default extraction path, if set).(Linux) fixed using output path as working directory.Re-introduced local help file for offline support.It supports its native PEA archive format (featuring compression, multi volume split and flexible authenticated encryption and. PeaZip is a free and open-sourcefile manager and file archiver for Microsoft Windows, ReactOS, Linux, MacOS and BSD made by Giorgio Tani. disk image backup, virtual machine optimization) In this guide, we will show you how to install PeaZip on Ubuntu systems. Added Zero delete free space, overwriting with all 0 to improve compressibility of filesystem (i.e.Added Secure delete free space, overwriting with random data multiple times (same as secure file delete). ![]() Open Source, released under LGPLv3 license.
