It also provides /usr/bin/7za, a statically-linked application that supports packing and unpacking 7z, zip, gzip, bzip2, and tar archives. Additionally, it provides /usr/bin/7z, a module-based application that supports the full set of 7-zip compression formats: pack/unpack: 7z, zip, gzip, bzip2, xz, tar, wim unpacking: arj, cab, chm, cpio, deb, dmg, hfs, lzh, lzma, xar, z installer formats: nsis, deb, rpm, msi filesystem images: cramfs, squashfs, udf, iso, ntfs, fat, vhd, mbr RAR unpacking support is NOT provided, as the UnRAR license not OSI-approved and is incompatible with cygwin. You are free to download the source package and rebuild p7zip *for your own personal use* as long as you do not distribute the resulting binary, if you need RAR unpacking support.
