Hi,
as I am not using Linux, while kind, the man pages would not help here.
I have still protected the copy of the .7z file, so may simply try running
it, program worked fine last time I tried.
Thanks,
Karen

Has been a couple of years since I needed this, and there is no readme
file in the p7zip directory.
the wordstar copy I was sent uses 7z though, so just making sure.
I have already copied the p7zip.exe file, to the correct directory, based
on my last use I copied another as well.
now, I just want to check if there are extra options for keeping the
directory structure as with pkunzip?
The Linux man page for p7zip here says that p7zip is a command-line
interface to 7z, so it can only really do what 7z can do.
The 7z man page says that if you want to save/restore directory
structures on Linux then you have to use something like 'tar' to do
that bit, so you would pipe tar's output to p7zip/7z.
I don't know how that will translate to DOS.
If you wish I can send you the man pages privately.
