This is a client for xadmaster.library to enable UnArc to extract 7-Zip
archives.

It supports PPMd (on OS4, 68k build has partial support), BZip2, LZMA, LZMA2
and Copy (no compression) methods.  Other methods may be supported in future,
please send me any unsupported archives.

Note that hook functions (eg. clicking "stop" in UnArc) don't work currently,
the compressed size is not decoded, and datestamps tend to be wrong.

If you want a default icon, copy def_7zip.info to envarc:sys, and add the
following to DefIcons:

Filetype: 7zip
Match: 7z\xBC\xAF'\x1C

Please report any bugs to chris@unsatisfactorysoftware.co.uk

A big thank you to Dag Ågren for his rewritten PPMd decoder, without which
the PPMd compression method would not be possible.

Thanks to Stephan Rupprecht for some pointers on creating OS4 native XAD clients,
and to Philippe Bovier for testing the 68k version.  The def_7zip icon is by
Martin Merz (www.masonicons.de), the others are 256 colour icons by Ken "Ken's
Icons" Lester.

2.2 (02.04.2010)
Updated to LZMA SDK 9.12 BETA
- Uses SDK PPMd code - not fully working (BCJ2 works, nothing else does),

2.1 (07.09.2009) SEVENTH RELEASE
Updated to LZMA SDK 9.07BETA
- Now supports LZMA2 compression
OS4 version compiled with latest SDK.
Thought it was appropriate to bump version to 2 as LZMA SDK has had a massive
5 version bump :)

1.9 (05.02.2009) SIXTH RELEASE
PPMd compression supported
 - Unfortunately this is OS4 only currently as my 68k build gets stuck in a loop
   when starting the PPMd decoder.
Recompiled with latest SDKs and compilers.

1.5 (09.03.2008) THIRD RELEASE
BZip2 method added.

1.4 SECOND RELEASE
Now extracts the the datestamp of compressed files.

1.3
An order of magnitude faster!  An archive which reportedly took 1hr40 with v1.1

of reporting an error.
First 68k version.
