7zr

File archiver with a high compression ratio. Similar to 7z except that it only supports 7z files. More information: https://manned.org/7zr.

  • [a]rchive a file or directory:

7zr a {{path/to/archive.7z}} {{path/to/file_or_directory}}

  • Encrypt an existing archive (including file names):

7zr a {{path/to/encrypted.7z}} -p{{password}} -mhe={{on}} {{path/to/archive.7z}}

  • Etract an archive preserving the original directory structure:

7zr x {{path/to/archive.7z}}

  • Etract an archive to a specific directory:

7zr x {{path/to/archive.7z}} -o{{path/to/output}}

  • Etract an archive to stdout:

7zr x {{path/to/archive.7z}} -so

  • [l]ist the contents of an archive:

7zr l {{path/to/archive.7z}}

  • Set the level of compression (higher means more compression, but slower):

7zr a {{path/to/archive.7z}} -mx={{0|1|3|5|7|9}} {{path/to/file_or_directory}}
