p7zip is a quick port of 7z.exe and 7za.exe (command line version of 7zip, see www.7-zip.org) for Unix. 7-Zip is a file archiver with highest compression ratio. Since 4.10, p7zip (like 7-zip) supports little-endian and big-endian machines.

PeaZip is a free archiver tool. The application provides an unified, natively portable, cross-platform file manager and archive manager GUI for many Open Source technologies like 7-Zip, FreeArc, PAQ, UPX. Create: 7Z, ARC, Brotl, BZip, GZip, PEA, TAR, WIM, XZ, ZPAQ, ZIP, Zstandard files and more Open and extract 200+ file types: ACE, CAB, DEB, ISO, RAR, ZIPX and more Features of PeaZip includes extract, create and convert multiple archives at once, create self-extracting archives (sfx), split files, strong encryption with two factor authentication, encrypted password manager, secure deletion, find duplicate files, calculate hashes, export task definition as command line script.

FLAC is a free lossless compressed audio format which supports streaming and archival. The FLAC project maintains the format and provides a reference encoder/decoder and input plugins for several popular audio players.

FreeArc combines best 7-zip and RAR features: auto-selected LZMA/PPMD/Multimedia compression, 1gb dictionary, exe/dict/delta data filters, updatable solid archives, SFXes, recovery record, AES+Twofish+Serpent encryption, Linux support and much more...

High-Performance Archiver & Backup for Mission-Critical Data Bulletproof archival for multi-TB datasets, NAS, and VM backups Built for speed: multi-core CPUs and modern SSD/NVMe drives to achieve 1 GB/s+ throughput, up to 3x faster than 7-Zip Far more efficient and versatile than Time Machine or ZFS snapshots Key Features: ✓ Deduplicated, incremental & versioned backups ✓ Anti-ransomware integrity checks & deep validation ✓ Multi-hash support: SHA-2, SHA-3, BLAKE3, XXH3 & more ✓ Strong encryption & low bandwidth overhead for Cloud/NAS/USB ✓ Full deduplicated disk imaging ✓ Read-only Archive Mounting in filesystem ✓ Includes GUI (Win/Linux/Mac): sourceforge.net/projects/catpaq Cross-Platform & Lightweight: Runs on Windows (inc. XP), Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, TrueNAS, Synology, QNAP, ARM, and ESXi. 15+ years of active development • 100% FOSS • Forever Free github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz www.francocorbelli.it/zpaqfranz

Lossless compressor for multichannel 8,16 and 24 bits audio data, with the ability of password data protection. Being 'lossless' means that no data/quality is lost in the compression - when uncompressed, the data will be identical to the original.

KGB Archiver is the compression tool with unbelievable high compression rate. It surpasses even such efficient compression tool like 7zip and UHARC in terms of the abilities. KGB Archiver uses AES-256 encryption to encrypt archives.

Native (JNI) cross-platform library to extract (password protected, multi-part) 7z Zip Rar Tar Split Lzma Iso HFS GZip Cpio BZip2 Z Arj Chm Lhz Cab Nsis Deb Rpm Wim Udf archives and create 7z, Zip, Tar, GZip & BZip2 from Java.

minidjvu is a DjVu encoder for black-and-white images.

QUAD is a command-line file compressor with a good compression ratio and fast decompression. Please note: This program was succeeded by the BALZ.

CRUSH is a simple LZ77-based file compressor that features an extremely fast decompression.

BALZ is a command-line file compressor with a high compression ratio and fast decompression.

KENS is a group of libraries that allow to compress and decompress data using the Kosinski, Enigma, Nemesis and Saxman formats. They are being programmed in C/C++ (VC++ for the Win32 version) and can be used by any application (even Win32 VB apps).

LZPX is a lightweight command-line file compressor. Please note: This program was succeeded by the QUAD.

Atol is a classical dual panel file manager aiming to be portable to both Linux and Windows OS (using C++ and GTK+ toolkit)

OpenDark is a free simplification of 'dark'. It's the first open BWT-DC compressor, which has a simple code, high speed and compression ratio. And it's waiting for your ideas! :)

Waveform Archiver

Tools for archiving, compressing and processing XML data.

larra provides some simple interfaces for archive access. The main feature is that it uses the same interface for directories and archives, which allows archive-in-archive access (like .tar.gz). For file access a seekable stream interface is used.

.NET wrapper for 7Zip, based on 7-Zip-JBinding, produced with IKVM. Extracts (password protected, multi-part) 7z Zip Rar Tar Split Lzma Iso HFS GZip Cpio BZip2 Z Arj Chm Lhz Cab Nsis Deb Rpm Udf archives. Archive creation/more formats coming soon.

libarxx is a C++ archiver with advanced features, like data synchronization and merging of multiple archives. It provides an object-oriented view on a directory tree of data items and allows versioning, compressing and structuring in multiple ways.

BCM is a high-performance file compressor that utilizes advanced context modeling techniques to achieve a very high compression ratio. All in all, it's like a big brother of the BZIP2.

Blackfisk is an application that does backups. It differs from other backup-software in the way how to use it. The software can handle huge and complex backup tasks.

This is an academic project. A library and a sample program will be developed, that will implement the Burrows-Wheeler compression algorithm, using C++ and templates. This is the same algorithm for BZip.
