Hi,
Thanks for that link, I have gathered it on the off chance I need it
again.
Cannot speak to a need for piping anything, it is not a part of my goals.
Or likely any task I will require.
Thanks again,
Karen

Hi,
That's not true. man pages are manuals for specific programs and functions.
Whether the subject of a manual's help is limited to a specific operating
system, like you're implying, is not the case for programs and functions that
are not exclusive to Linux. If you don't have access to a computer with
Linux, that's fine, because there are online resources for man pages. Here's
one result for p7zip that's fairly up to date:
https://manpages.opensuse.org/Tumbleweed/7zip/p7zip.1.en.html
One thing you can definitely beware of in such manuals is when features for
Unix-like operating systems are taken for granted by the author, and not made
obvious to the reader. For that reason, I'll give you a heads up and let you
know that piping the input and output is probably not going to work on
traditional DOS. It works on FreeDOS however.

as I am not using Linux, while kind, the man pages would not help here.
