Type:         util/arc
Version:      1.7
Requires:     util/arc/xadmaster020.lha
Architecture: ppc-amigaos >= 4.0.0; m68k-amigaos >= 2.0.4

This is a client for xadmaster.library to enable UnArc to extract 7-Zip
archives.

It supports BZip2, LZMA and Copy (no compression) methods with BCJ and BCJ2
filters.  Other methods may be supported in future, please send me any
unsupported archives.

Note that hook functions (eg. clicking "stop" in UnArc) don't work currently,
and the compressed size is not decoded.

If you want a default icon, copy def_7zip.info to envarc:sys, and add the
following to DefIcons:

Filetype: 7zip
Match: 7zxBCxAF'x1C

Please report any bugs to chris@unsatisfactorysoftware.co.uk

Thanks to Stephan Rupprecht for some pointers on creating OS4 native XAD clients,
and to Philippe Bovier for testing the 68k version.  The def_7zip icon is by
Martin Merz (www.masonicons.de), the others are 256 colour icons by Ken "Ken's
Icons" Lester.
