Fine by me.

But, there's always a butt isn't there.

The following compression/extraction do work if using 7z with tar.

For compression of the directory Pictures:
tar cvf Pictures.tar Pictures | 7za a -t7z Pictures.tar.7z Pictures.tar

For extraction of Pictures.tar.7z:
7za x Pictures.tar.7z && tar -xf Pictures.tar

If you are wondering a pipe will not work for extraction.

Whether you want to mess with it any more is entirely up to you and
I'm good with whichever way you go.
