7zip/p7zip.1
Martin Pluskal 990fe14103 - Update to 24.09:
* The default dictionary size values for LZMA/LZMA2 compression methods
    were increased
  * 7-Zip now can calculate the following hash checksums: SHA-512, SHA-384, SHA3-256 and MD5.
  * APM and HFS support was improved.
  * If an archive update operation uses a temporary archive folder and
    the archive is moved to the destination folder, 7-Zip shows the progress of moving
    the archive file, as this operation can take a long time if the archive is large.
  * The bug was fixed: 7-Zip File Manager didn't propagate Zone.Identifier stream
    for extracted files from nested archives (if there is open archive inside another open
    archive).
  * Some bugs were fixed.

.TH p7zip 1 "March 6th, 2016" "7-Zip"
.SH NAME
p7zip \- Wrapper on 7-Zip file archiver with high compression ratio
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B p7zip
.RB [ \-c | \-\-stdout | \-\-to\-stdout ]
.RB [ \-d | \-\-decompress | \-\-uncompress ]
.RB [ \-f | \-\-force ]
.RB [ \-h | \-\-help ]
.RB [ \-k | \-\-keep ]
.RB [ \-\- ]
.RI [ "file ..." ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
7-Zip is a file archiver supporting 7z (that implements LZMA compression algorithm
featuring very high compression ratio), LZMA2, XZ, ZIP, Zip64, CAB,
RAR (if the non-free p7zip-rar package is installed), ARJ, GZIP, BZIP2, TAR, CPIO, RPM, ISO,
most filesystem images and DEB formats.
Compression ratio in the new 7z format is 30-50% better than ratio in ZIP format.
.PP
.B p7zip
is a gzip-like CLI wrapper script for 7-Zip, and handles only the 7z format (the native
format of 7-Zip), internally executing either
.BR 7za (1)
or
.BR 7zr (1)
command.
.PP
With no switches passed in the command line, each given
.I file
argument is compressed into
.IR file.7z ,
and then removed.
.PP
With the
.B \-d
switch each passed
.I file
needs to end with the
.I .7z
extension and is decompressed. After the
decompression the original
.I file
is removed unless it contained more than one archived file.
.PP
When used without any
.I file
argument,
.BR p7zip
reads data from the standard input and compresses (or decompresses in case of
.BR \-d )
it into the standard output.
.SH SWITCHES
.TP
.BR \-c ", " \-\-stdout ", " \-\-to\-stdout
Write output on standard output.
.TP
.BR \-d ", " \-\-decompress ", " \-\-uncompress
Decompress file.
.TP
.BR \-f ", " \-\-force
Skip some checks and force compression or decompression.
.TP
.BR \-h ", " \--help
Print usage.
.TP
.BR \-k ", " \-\-keep
Do not delete input file.
.TP
.B \-\-
Treat all subsequent arguments as file names, even if they start with a dash.
