Zipper on steroids

Thu, 2 Sep 2004 at 12:55 • Chyetanya Kunte • Filed under Software

I needed a reason to uninstall Winzip. I got a load-full with this:

TUGZip is an advanced archiving utility with an easy-to-use interface. It supports a wide rage of file formats. You can create 7-ZIP, BZ2, CAB, LHA (LZH), SQX, TAR, TGZ, YZ1 and ZIP archives. It has built-in support for reading/extracting ZIP, 7-ZIP, A, ACE, ARJ, BZ2, CAB, CPIO, DEB, GCA, GZ, IMP, LHA (LZH), LIB, RAR, RPM, SQX, TAR, TGZ, TBZ, TAZ, YZ1 and ZOO archives.

Support for the new Zip64 algorithm enables you to create archives at a total size of 4GB. Included in the package is also a SFX-tool and a scripting tool which simplifies secure and automated backups. You can encrypt/decrypt files using six different algorithms, Blowfish (128-bit), DES (56-bit), Triple DES (168-bit) and Rijndael 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit). You can even convert them to SFX-archives. (Via Langalist)

    Hi!! thanks for your comments on my blog.
    I have been reading your blog-as you know, from awhile. Just when I thought of writing you reported you won’t be checking your blog. So now that you are back,here I go.

    Firstly,your page looks amazing.Your daughter looks so nice.I hope some day I can have a website as clean and organized as yours.
    Secondly,having spent most of my life in hospitals and on the field,both my husband and myself we are not very good at understanding stuff relating to computers and software. I now feel that this should’nt be an excuse to not attempt to figure out computers/sofware etc as much as we can. On many occassions,I find your way of discussing software issues more easier to understand.
    Thirdly,maybe the fact that you are from Karnataka too makes me look out for any news/general stuff from that part of the country!
    And finally,I generally enjoy reading your blog!!
    You can expect more comments from me in the future.
