When we go offline for a while, it happens because we’re working on something really complex, you know. We’ve not been abudcted by aliens but we are working really hard because we are very close to our long-time desired goal: we’re developing for Linux!

Leaving Windows for Linux was not so hard as it it could be in the past. Our hardware is powerful (thanks to your donations) and Linux-based operating systems are really competitive. We just lack some top-class application but their free alternatives are growing fast: this is important because moving to Linux requires a full immesion into it and you must know how to use it even when you’re using for daily task and not for ZipGenius development.

Well, now we are at a good point in the process, so we can show you what we’re cooking for you.

The conversion of ZipGenius from Windows to Linux actually doesn’t involve the porting of the main application. Linux has plenty of compression utilities and they’re doing very well, but with ZipGenius we would like to go beyond the basic compression/decompression tasks and we want to offer the same features that ZipGenius offers to Windows users since 1997; in the meanwhile, the main application can wait and we decided to filla gap between Windows and Linux environments, so we wanted to introduce something new for the Linux community: CZIP, our encrypted ZIP file format.

We’ve built an application named CZipper that allows users to comvert ZIP into CZIP and vice versa, even with the option to create executable CZIp files for Linux and Windows.

A CZIP archive made in Linux with CZipper is 100% compatible with ZipGenius for Windows, as well as a CZIP file made with ZipGenius for Windows could be decrypted and decompressed with CZipper in Linux.

We’re very proud of the new stubs used to convert CZIP files into executables for Linux: we wrote them from scratch and we polished the few code ported from Windows. We’re so proud that we will port this code back to Windows and we will offer new CZIP executable stubs as an update pack for ZipGenius.. These stubs will be available in both 32 and 64 bits versione, in Italian and in English (with the chance to translate them).

Here are some screenshots from CZipper and the tests we performed while developving the CZIp stubs.
