skyhawk Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 I am looking for a Linux archiver program that is compatible with WinZip, in that it is disk-spanning enabled for compression and decompression operations. An open source program is preferred. Recommendations would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 I believe (IMHO), that this will do what you need: PeaZip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyhawk Posted August 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 (edited) Thanks again, Greg2. "PeaZip" will satisfy my needs perfectly. I will be storing archive files on CDRW, when I get around to installing the drive, but I will always need an archiver program that can span diskettes, and I need one that can decompress archives spanned by WinZip. "PeaZip" looks like a winner; it has a nicely designed interface and is amply supported. This just as mouch a suggestion as a question, but can't ark do the same? To "orts:" No, "Ark" cannot decompress ZIP files stored on multiple diskettes by WinZip. Edited August 8, 2007 by skyhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
