p7zip: Archive a file, replacing it with a 7zipped compressed version.
$ p7zip ${filename}
try on your machine
The command "p7zip ${filename}" is used to compress or decompress files using the p7zip tool.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "p7zip": This is the executable or command name for the p7zip tool. It is a command-line file archiver with high compression ratios.
- "${filename}": This is a placeholder for the actual name of the file you want to compress or decompress. It should be replaced with the specific file name or path.
When using the command, you would replace "${filename}" with the name of the file you want to operate on. For example:
To compress a file named "example.txt", you would run: p7zip example.txt
To decompress a file named "example.7z", you would run: p7zip example.7z
