doesn't need installation and can use from
removable or remote paths.
32 bit packages can be installed on 64 bit Linux
systems omitting architecture check (or use
peazip_portable packages instead); backend
binaries in PeaZip path can be replaced with
respective 64 bit counterpart if available if
desired.
PeaZip is developed using Lazarus/FreePascal which
supports different multiple widgetsets (Win32,
WinCE, fpGUI, Carbon, Qt, GTK1, GTK2); at the
present level of development PeaZip for Linux is
available precompiled for GTK1 and GTK2.
