Yes. Otherwise I would of been anti-7z. Despite the very commercial sounding name, 7z is an LGPL'd open source program with tons of easy to install binaries for many platforms, etc. Check out http://www.7-zip.org/ I wonder the name "7z" or "7-zip" sounds so commercial to us? Did it used to be commercial or something?
