User-installed (i.e., not part of the system package manager) programs

If the AppleScripts are hard-coding /usr/bin/7za then they should be
changed; AppleScript's `do shell script` uses the user's shell and
honours .profile or .bash_profile settings. A hard-coded path also
breaks things for people using MacPorts, where 7za would be found in /
opt/local/bin.
