OptiPNG is a PNG optimizer that recompresses image files to a smaller size, without losing any information. This program also converts external formats (BMP, GIF, PNM and TIFF) to optimized PNG, and performs PNG integrity checks and corrections.

FreeArc combines best 7-zip and RAR features: auto-selected LZMA/PPMD/Multimedia compression, 1gb dictionary, exe/dict/delta data filters, updatable solid archives, SFXes, recovery record, AES+Twofish+Serpent encryption, Linux support and much more...

FLAC is a free lossless compressed audio format which supports streaming and archival. The FLAC project maintains the format and provides a reference encoder/decoder and input plugins for several popular audio players.

Lossless compressor for multichannel 8,16 and 24 bits audio data, with the ability of password data protection. Being 'lossless' means that no data/quality is lost in the compression - when uncompressed, the data will be identical to the original.

KGB Archiver is the compression tool with unbelievable high compression rate. It surpasses even such efficient compression tool like 7zip and UHARC in terms of the abilities. KGB Archiver uses AES-256 encryption to encrypt archives.

pngcrush and other tools for manipulating PNG (Portable Network Graphics) and MNG (Multiple-image Network Graphics) files.

A portable version of the ARJ archiver, available for a growing number of DOS-like and UNIX-like platforms on a variety of architectures.

Compressor.js is a lightweight JavaScript library for in-browser image compression that allows developers to reduce file sizes before uploading images to a server, improving performance and user experience. It works by taking an input image (such as from a file input) and resizing or reencoding it on the client side according to developer-specified options like maximum width, height, quality, and MIME type. Because compression happens in the browser, users upload smaller images without sacrificing responsiveness or relying on server resources, which is especially useful for mobile users or limited-bandwidth environments. The library supports modern browsers and automatically handles orientation based on EXIF metadata, ensuring images appear correctly after compression.

J7Z is an alternative 7-Zip GUI. It was designed by Xavion. 7-Zip is a high-compression file archiver. It was designed by Igor Pavlov. Use J7Z if you want to: * Update existing archives quickly * Backup multiple folders to a storage location * Create or extract protected archives * Lessen effort by using archiving profiles and lists

Abbrevia is a compression toolkit for Delphi, C++Builder, Kylix, and Free Pascal. It supports compressing and decompressing PKZIP, Microsoft CAB, tar, gzip, and bzip2 archives, and can create self-extracting executables. On Windows it also provides Delphi wrappers for the LZMA, Bzip2, and WavPack SDKs, and PPMd decompression. Abbrevia also has several visual controls that simplify displaying and manipulating archives, including treeview and listview components.

Zip-Ada is a library for .zip archives. Full sources are in Ada and are unconditionally portable. Input and output can be any stream (file, buffer,...) for archive creation as well as data extraction. Task safe and endian-neutral. More information on: http://unzip-ada.sf.net Alire crate: https://alire.ada.dev/crates/zipada Mirror: https://github.com/zertovitch/zip-ada/

ARC is used to create and maintain file archives. An archive is a group of files collected together into one file in such a way that the individual files may be recovered intact. This repo is obsolete. Use github.com/hyc/arc instead.

minidjvu is a DjVu encoder for black-and-white images.

Flake is an open-source FLAC audio encoder.

AZip is a free Zip Archive Manager with unique features such as: built-in content Search, smart archive Update, archive Recompression. The goal is to keep the user interface as simple as possible and bother the user the least possible with options or useless gadgets.

The linux e2compr package consists of a set of patches and utilities to provide transparent compression and decompression in the second extended (ext2) filesystem.

`archivemail' is a tool written in python for archiving and compressing old email in mailboxes. It can move messages that are older that the specified number of days to a mbox-format mailbox compressed with gzip, or optionally just delete old email.

REOBack (pronounced as ray-o-back), is a backup solution designed for Linux users/system admins. It supports scheduled full/incremental backups, remote transfers via NFS or FTP as well as auto-deletion of old backups.
