      It would've been nice if you'd dealt with the issue of 7-Zip file compatibility with other ZIP utilities. In the old days before people wanted lotsa features (like encryption) you could zip files with pretty much any utility and anyone with any other zip utility could open it. I'm wondering if plain vanilla 7-zipped files can be opened, for example, with the built-in Windows "Extract" utility. Can I create ordinary ".zip" files with 7-Zip? If so, what features are supported? How do I specify this? If I (for example) encrypt a file using 7-Zip, what other tools might possibly be able to open it. If I create a ".7z" file, what other tools can open that? And so on. Back when, the universality of "zip" files was one of their big selling points. But as we now require more of our zip files, things are more complex. I don't see how anyone could seriously consider a ZIP utility without some discussion of these issues. Thanks.

    A big flaw in 7z is there's no way to add a comment to an archive. unzip/zip is not as good as 7z compression wise but it does have a comment ability. I used to use comments a lot with zip files because I'd pack up test result files into a zip file and then put the parameters of the test into the zip archive as a comment. It would be nice if 7z had the same ability. By putting the test details in the zip comment it made it impossible to lose that information when the zip file was loaded into JIRA as an artifact.
