7zip Batch Compression

A good batch zipper. But only problem is you can't remove files you've added. So you have to close out and relaunch the program every time you want to change folders. A way to remove the files so you can keep the program open would be a great update.

Easy to use and simple.

It works only for files. It can't zip a folder and its contents, but only a file. Anyone know how to zip all folders in a directory into separate archives using 7zip? Any CLI options for this? I need these specific options to be used for all the archives. .7z, Ultra, LZMA2, 1024MB, 273, solid, compress shared files.

For the little functionality that this tool offers, a 10+ MiB wx GUI DLL seems overkill. The creation of multiple archive directories when unpacking is provided by 7-Zip itself (-o switch with asterisk appended, i.e. -otarget_dir\* will create a directory with the archive name in target_dir for each unpacked archive). What I would expect from a useful batch processor is a) logging, b) ability to supress unwanted dialogs and message boxes (e.g. asking for password), c) support for password lists, d) ability to skip erraneous operations (try to do as much as possible as requested), e) cleanup operations and f) post-processing commands (e.g. run virus scanner). AFAIK nothing of that is implemented. Overall, this does look more like a wxWidgets beginner's programming excersise than a real-life tool. Nothing wrong with that but why publish?
