And like I said, 7zip allows a single file to be unpacked from a solid archive. No need to unpack everything. I have verified that with Total Commander (TC) and the 7-zip plugin, otherwise 7-zip will not be an option for a help system. With TC I can browse a 7z solid archive and view a single file and all that lies in the temp directory is the single file I am viewing. For archives like .tar.gz the TC temp directory contains the whole archive uncompressed (not desired).
