Hello Karen,
As I've stated in my previous email:
* unzip is for decompressing zip files
* zip is for creating zip files
* p7zip is for BOTH creating and extracting 7z files (and many more
actually)
With p7zip, this is not an Alcohol 68% and Alcohol 52% situation, like
it is with zip and unzip ;)
You can install all 3 from fdimples, which is the package manager for
FreeDOS. fdimples should be able to use a CDROM, a USB pendrive, or a
network connection to reach a repository and let you install whatever
packages are available within.
If you do not want to use fdimples, I'm afraid you'll have to download
those files that Eric specified on Ibiblio and extract them into your
FreeDOS partition. The disadvantage here is that you'll have to serve
yourself to have these tools available in %PATH%, or, put up with having
to use absolute paths to the executables of these programs.
Hope it helps!
Best regards,
Michał Dec

The file referenced by Eric, seems to have archiving tools, but not
extracting ones.
Unless I am missing something profoundly obvious?
