Description:

P7zip is the unix command-line port of 7-zip, a file archiver that archives with very high compression ratios.

p7zip provides:
- /usr/bin/7zr
a standalone minimal version of the 7-zip tool that only handles
7z archives. 7z compression is 30-50% better than zip compression.
- /usr/bin/p7zip
a gzip like wrapper around 7zr.
p7zip can be used with popular compression interfaces (e.g. file-roller and nautilus).

p7zip-full provides 7z and 7za which support more compression formats.

5 months ago	liphvf	5	Muito bom! Great Quality!
6 months ago	SaimonSL	5	Use this all the time because 7zip is also 100% free (no ads 100% clean, lightweight) in windows and mac so if you compress anything in .7z eveyone can open it. The compression rate is also very good and you can secure the file as well with password.
