p7zip

Wrapper of 7-Zip file archiver with high compression ratio. Internally executes either 7za or 7zr command. More information: https://p7zip.sourceforge.net.

• Archive a file, replacing it with a 7zipped compressed version:

p7zip {{path/to/file}}

• Archive a file keeping the input file:

p7zip {{[-k|--keep]}} {{path/to/file}}

• Decompress a file, replacing it with the original uncompressed version:

p7zip {{[-d|--decompress]}} {{compressed.ext}}.7z

• Decompress a file keeping the input file:

p7zip {{[-d|--decompress]}} {{[-k|--keep]}} {{compressed.ext}}.7z

• Skip some checks and force compression or decompression:

p7zip {{[-f|--force]}} {{path/to/file}}
