Even more smart is to just type in 'cd ' (please don't forget the blank after the letter d and then just drag & drop the folder with the archive inside to the actual cursor position! That saves you a lot of typing! :-)\\

!!Example for packing with compression and strong AES-256 encryption
7z does not store the owner/group of the file, so adding files using tar before 7z is a good practice:\\
\\
tar cpvf test.tar test.jpg\\
\\
7z a -p -mx=9 -mhe -t7z test.7z test.tar\\
\\
Terminal will ask you after pressing return for your password. Please repeat it once for security reasons and afterwards you are finished. For unpacking please use the example described above.\\
