The 7zdec package in FreeDOS is built from the same source package as 7za, 7zr, and 7zm. I don't intend to maintain these products separately. This 7zdec source package is renamed to Retro7zip to distinguish it from other forks, particularly p7zip, which has a different pedigree. Key differences vice the p7zip package in distro are: * Retro7zip is sixteen years newer. * Retro7zip is perfectly DOS native. * Retro7zip has all upstream features except benchmarking and sfx, which might come later. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
