pkt gui For Linux

pkt gui project is a XML-based packet archiver with parity.

pkt guiis a universal XML packet archiver. It can manipulate files for backing up documents, transferring them across networks, emailing them, and sharing them by other means (p2p etc).

It uses plugin filters to do the job and handles virtually any format available if there is a plugin for it. It handles encryption, compression, conversion, parity checking, decryption, decoding, repairing, rebuilding, and other tasks using a universal file format (XML-based).

By default, all pkt guioutput is in 7-bit ASCII which is UTF encoded and is compatible with XML parsers. pkt guifiles can be disassembled, reassembled, and repaired by hand if necessary. pkt guialso supports the use of 8-bit compressed XML packets for its archives using one of several compression algorithms.

In general, pkt guiwill try to use the best algorithms available.
