#2.7 line is focused to a major GUI update, featuring a clearer taskbar, and compression and extraction stages with a simpler, task oriented interface, whithout losing the flexibility of composing job's layout from multiple sources and ability to toggle between browser and job definition mode as in previous versions of the program.

#In PeaZip 2.7 it is possible to save/restore layouts also for extraction jobs (not only for compression), simplifying saving and restoring previously definited backup or restore tasks, and to compress files/folders into individual archives from archive creation interface; it is also possible (optionally) to open automatically the output path after extraction/compression operations, like some other archivers does.

#FreeArc backend is updated with new 0.51 version, allowing creation of self-extracting ARC archives, and 7z backend is updated to 9.07.

#PAQ, LPAQ and ZPAQ are supported for archiving and extraction; ZPAQ support is still partial, allowing only saving and restoring to original full paths (recommended for backup/restore only, rather than for general purpose archiving tasks).

#On Linux, .desktop files (KDE) and Nautilus scripts (Gnome; needs to be manually copied in script's folder) were updated to use the new extraction dialog.

#Windows installer was updated to create context menu's extraction entries only for archive types, and to restore association of ZIP files with Compressed Folder utility when PeaZip is uninstalled.

#A total of 95 file extensions are supported.

# added support for MS Office Template file types (a total of 90 file extensions
are now supported)
# PeaLauncher:

* fixed bug in exploring paths containing spaces
* fixed bug in exploring paths in full mode (when PeaLauncher is used as
standalone application)
* standardized ok and cancel buttons' position and icons

# Pea:

* fixed bug refusing chunck size bigger than maxint from command line
* fixed possible looping of application after internal_error procedure

# p7zip backend updated to 9.04 (Linux)
# tightened sanitization of input strings in PeaZip GUI, as security fix against
a class of possible attacks based on code injection (ref:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35352/ http://milw0rm.com/exploits/8881 original
submission: http://retrogod.altervista.org/). To attack previos releases an
attacker could build archives containing objects with nonvalid filenames,
containing concatenated commands in the filename "hidden" to the user by making
the filename very long with spaces to trick users in non reading the latter part
of the name. If unaware users had downloaded such archive and doubleclicked or
otherwise opened the archived file entry containing the concatenated command,
would have put in execution the command (with current user rights). Fixes:

* check file/dir names for:
o non-allowed characters (0..31)
o reserved characters
o reserved file names
o unusual spacing (5 consecutive or more, like in 7-Zip GUI), as may
be intended to trick user hiding real filename
* check command string immediately before execution for:
o non-allowed characters
o reserved characters for command concatenation (|<>), not used by
PeaZip GUI
o unusual spacing

# 87 file extensions supported
# (Windows) 7z backend updated to 9.04

# it is now possible to define a custom desktop folder in Settings

* (Linux) this change fixed possible access violation message at the first
run of the application, while the application attempts to open a system
dialog to set desktop folder (only on non-English installations, on
distributions not using "Desktop" name for desktop folder)

# removed deletion functions from archive layout interface, del remapped to
remove item from layout
# various fixes

* fixed a bug in dragging items to bookmarks (bookmarks bar was raised even
if it was hidden)
* now size of multipart archive is reported correctly in PeaLauncher
* fixed password input using extract here from context menu
* (Linux, Qt) moved libqt4intf.so in PeaZip's path (as in portable version)
and created links into /usr/lib, /usr/lib32 and /usr/local/lib
* some fixes for Windows 9x systems; please note that some of the backend
application may not run properly on Windows 9x, and the frontend too may
behave unexpectedly on some configurations since it is not possible to test
it on many different 9x machines.
