Compress tools

Some weeks ago i spent one morning searching for an advance compress tool and the best i found was Peazip.
It was the only one that takes a bunch of files and subdirectories and compress each one to a different archive. Also can encrypt even the list of files and so on.
It lacks things like auto deleting items as they are processed.
Do you know another similar compress tool?.
Regards.
The problem with Peazip is that is not on the repositories and the .deb installer cointais a piece of non-free software, so can someone suggest a more advanced tool than File Roller?.
If not, i'll consider encourage to develop a free Peazip package for our repositories. I need some feedback to decide...
I was not aware that PeaZip contains non-free software.
If the non-free software affects the rar support then a libre PeaZip package would be useless for most users.
Yes, affects uncompression of Rar3 format. So in that sense a libre Peazip package would do as usefull/useless as File Roller is, but it has more advanced funcionalities.
Finally decided to delete /usr/local/share/PeaZip/res/7z/Codecs/Rar29.so.
This way the program fails when atempting to extract rar files but the rest works fine and i'm absolutely sure that has no non-free software.
Wouldn't Rar29.so be for Rar 2.9? I thought it was only Rar 3 that was nonfree.
I am a translator!
Only RAR3 is nonfree, although nobody uses 2.9 anymore.
Maybe that file uncompress Rar3 also. It's the only file under the folder 'Codecs' and is the one that the author recommends to delete if we don't agree with the rar license restriction.
