Hi, I would like to introduce a project for a file archiver I developed
in last months.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pea-peach
It supports it's native .pea archive format and raw file split/join,
it's released under LGPL (.pea file format specifications are released
under public domain)
It is an os-portable archiver performing in a single passage:
- (optional) integrity check of uncompressed input objects, including
object attributes, file age and full qualified name;
- (optionally) compress non-empty files (deflate based compression
scheme described in the documentation)
- (optionally) encrypt and authenticate all object in the archive as a
single stream of data (described in details in the documentation)
- write the output data to arbitrarily sized volumes and (optionally)
checksum or hash volumes for integrity check
It's developed under Lazarus/FreePascal and built for Windows and
Linux; it uses the Delphi/Pascal crypto library developed and mantained
by Wolfgang Ehrhardt

Any comment is welcome, thank you
Giorgio

delsafe 0.3.0 is released.
DELSAFE is a set of utilities to hopefully allow you to recover
recently deleted files. Basically, when you delete or in certain cases
overwrite a file the original file is moved into a TRASH CAN. It does
this by overriding original unlink, rename, open and fopen library calls
using the Linux LD_PRELOAD mechanism. Because of this, files deleted by
statically linked programs are not recoverable. TRASH CANS are placed on
top of each mount point and are accessible by each user directly or
through links placed at user's home directory. This makes deletion very
fast because, in fact, it is only a rename. To each filename in the
TRASH CAN is appended a time/version stamp. You can then use "undel"
utility to recover files. System administrators can run "delsafe_clean"
utility to clean the trash cans.
FEATURES
* Very fast!. Deletes are transformed into renames; When used in
mass deletions, initializations and initial computations like regexps
compilations are only done once; There is a trash can per mount point -
no copy is done; Some configuration options, specified during install,
are automatically hardcoded into the source code.
* Easy recovery of files by date/time/version. You may use the undel
utility or manually using the usual *nix tools - cp, mv, gzip, ....
* Easy automatic installation. Manual and more controlled
installation is also possible.
* A configurable cleaner utility that trys to compress/delete files
from trash cans.
* Per user links to trash cans.
