Support for 7z encode and decode

[rahulakash]

Hello,

Thank you for all the work here. I have been using archive library in my dart application for a while now. However there are some cases where I am required to use 7z encoder and decoder. Since there seems to be no support at this time, I am relying on the local system's 7z.exe to do the job. It would be really great to have a support for 7z encoder and decoder within archive library and I believe it will definitely add to the archive library's strength.

Any suggestions/workaround for this support are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It would be great to add the 7z format, and particularly its LZMA compression. But unfortunately I've had very little to no time for my side projects lately, including Dart, so I don't even know when I would be able to get to it.

I can't think of another way to support 7z other than what you're already doing. I wish I could help more. Maybe someone else wants to take it on, or maybe sometime in the hopefully not-to-distant future I'll be able to regain some of my personal project time.

Is there anyone out here can help with that 7z issue? Would love to use 7x extraction ...

Would love to have a 7z archive compress & extraction with Ultra compression and support encrypted/password 7z files

yeah would love to see that too, any updates on that?
