OT...running 7-zip from cmd line?

[El Scotthead]

This would probably bite me in the face if it were a snake, but I sure can't see it.

 

What is the syntax for running 7-zip from the command line? I've been through the documentation, but just can't get it to work.

 

ie, is it something like this?

"c:program files7-zip7z.exe" 7z a -tzip c:jobsarchive.zip -mx5 c:jobssomefile.mcx

 

I should note that eventually, I will be using it in Rekd's filebackup script.

 

thanks,

You're using the command-line version of 7-Zip, right?

[El Scotthead]

I thought I was, but since it's not working, I guess not.

 

I'll download it from your link and we'll go from there.

 

Thanx.

I uninstalled it and re-downloaded. Working fine now.
