I'm trying to figure out how to password encrypt an archive file using 7zip on Linux. On Windows, I can easily do it through the GUI by dragging and dropping the file, but I'm unsure what command I should use in the Linux command line interface. Any tips?

Check out the `man 7z` command for detailed instructions—just use the arrow keys to scroll and `/` to search. But you might also need to use `man 7z` instead, depending on your distro!
You might want to run `7z --help` in your terminal to see the available commands. It provides a lot of options that can be useful!
Yeah, that's definitely the right command to look for! Here's a direct link to the manual as well: [7z man page](https://linux.die.net/man/1/7z) if you prefer that.
