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.
