PackageDescription | 7z and 7za file archivers with high compression ratio
p7zip is the Unix command-line port of 7-Zip, a file archiver that
archives with high compression ratios.
.
p7zip-full provides utilities to pack and unpack 7z archives within
a shell or using a GUI (such as Ark, File Roller or Nautilus).
.
Installing p7zip-full allows File Roller to use the very efficient 7z
compression format for packing and unpacking files and directories.
Additionally, it provides the 7z and 7za commands.
.
List of supported formats:
- Packing / unpacking: 7z, ZIP, GZIP, BZIP2, XZ and TAR
- Unpacking only: APM, ARJ, CAB, CHM, CPIO, CramFS, DEB, DMG, FAT,
HFS, ISO, LZH, LZMA, LZMA2, MBR, MSI, MSLZ, NSIS, NTFS, RAR (only
if non-free p7zip-rar package is installed), RPM, SquashFS, UDF,
VHD, WIM, XAR and Z.
.
p7zip provides 7zr, a light version of 7za, and p7zip, a gzip-like
wrapper around 7zr. |
