Software Update: PeaZip 7.3.1

Version 7.3.1 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 improvements have been made in this release:

backend

• Zstd 1.4.5

Code

• Various fixes, improved progress bar accuracy for multiple tasks

File Manager

• Fixed folder sorting, now folders are always grouped before files
• Improved theming, window and toolbar colors can now be customized
  • New Graphite, Mocha, and Senape themes with intermediate color tones
  • (cross-platform limitation) System-rendered widgetsets are not affected by theme colors as native drawing methods were not bypassed by theme implementation
  • (Windows 10 limitation) Dark Mode colors are not passed from system to application, as workaround it is possible to use an High Contrast theme, which passes colors consistent with Dark Mode UI, until a complete API is made available to developers

Extraction and archiving

• Added support for .zstd extension, as used in compressed cpo in new rpm installers
• (Linux) Updated sfx module for p7zip
