* Sat Feb 26 2022 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.5.0-1 PeaZip 8.5.0 release improves the packages for macOS platform, with macOS-style keyboard shortcuts, integration with macOS context menu, full support to "move to trash" deletion (both from file manager, and after compression/extraction operations), and support for Brotli, Zpaq, and Zstandard backends. macOS system integration is fully scriptable through Automator .workflow scripts, see sample service menus in (peazip)/res/share/batch folder. File manager was improved, and now allows more alternative styles (large list and large details) on Linux. It is now possible to optionally integrate PeaZip in Windows 11 mini-context menu from .reg scripts in (peazip)/res/share/batch folder. This release improves scripting, usage of layouts (files defining advanced inclusion and exclusion filters, and optionally input list), and updates compression settings. Updated backends: 7z 21.07, Pea 1.06, and Zstd 1.5.2. * Thu Dec 16 2021 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.4.0-1 PeaZip 8.4.0 is the first release providing experimental native packages for Darwin/macOS platform, built for aarch64 M1 Apple Silicon SoC, and Intel x86_64. This release brings fixes, improvements in management of temporary files, option to stop test batches only if errors are detected, and new language selection control. A new alternative benchmark is available, based on integer and floating point arithmetic, testing single core and multi core performances. PeaZip now comes with updated backends: Pea 1.05, and 7z 21.06, which are now employed on all platforms. On Linux, 7z backend replaces p7zip, which is still fully supported as alternative. New peazip-x.y.z.pack package is meant to help developers to create packages of PeaZip for various package management systems (e.g. DEB, RPM), containing packages' directories from last build. It does not replaces or duplicates the function of sources package peazip-x.y.z.src, as it is simply meant to help packaging the application for a specific distribution system, rather than compiling and building the binaries of the application. * Sun Nov 21 2021 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.3.0-2 - Dropped KDE 4 support from the package (https://archlinux.org/news/dropping-plasma-4). * Wed Nov 17 2021 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.3.0-1 PeaZip 8.3.0 adds Deflate and Deflate64 options for .7z format, improves theming, command line usage, management of preferred checksum/hash algorithms list and management of temporary work files. The release is focused on improving the support for Linux, and to make easier to port or package the application in environments, mandating a precise filesystem hierarchy structure, separating architecture-dependent binary resources from other types of resources, packaged with the application. Full list of changes and fixes is available at https://peazip.github.io/changelog.html * Sat Sep 18 2021 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.2.0-2 - Removed unnecessary Windows-related files. - Corrected file permissions. * Sat Sep 18 2021 Vladimir Svyatski - 8.2.0-1 PeaZip 8.2.0 is focused on improving the use from command line and scripts, and introduces the (peazip)/res/batch folder, which contains sample scripts and system integration files for both Linux and Windows (the SendTo and freedesktop_integration folders are moved there). The archive manager is now capable of optionally displaying compression/encryption method and modified, created, accessed timestamps for each item in the archive, and displaying the number of items, contained in each folder. It is now possible to choose to keep extracted files even in the case errors occurred during the extraction; working with spanned files was improved. "Smart extraction" is now available as a default action to take at program's startup, alongside "Open", "Open as archive", "Extract (full)", "Extract here". This release also improves the user experience on Linux systems by improving the automatic configuration of applications for the "open with" actions and by displaying more system paths in the file manager. The application is now installed in /opt/peazip. The backend was updated to Brotli 1.0.9 (Linux). A total of 225 file extensions can now be managed by PeaZip, with addition of .apkm, .apks and .aab Android package formats, and of Lzip .lz (supported on Linux versions only).
