Comforting message from 7za

[motorollin]

For the first time ever I needed to decompress a 7zip file. I downloaded 7za for OS X, opened up a terminal and decompressed the file. Once it had finished, I was presented with the following message:

"Everything is OK."

For some reason I found this utterly heart-warming and comforting :lol: I wonder if that was the developer's intention? :-)

Yes, it's 7-Zip. 7za is the *nix 7-Zip archiver. I didn't know it could open .exe archives. Will be handy to keep around for when I want to get some data out of a Windows app without having to install it under Parallels. Everything is OK :-D

Yes I know it's illogical, since I don't think any Unix compatible operating systems end with "nix". But it is a commonly used term for Unix-like OS.

Well ok, let me rephrase that. There are OSs which fall within the "*nix" family which do not end in "nix", although some might. E.g. Linux is classed as a *nix OS, but it doesn't end with "nix".
