jpzip is a simple program to extract archive that contains files with name in Japanese correctly using 7zip.
Deal with archive files that contain files with name in Japanese all the time? Frequent customer on DLSite or other Japanese sites?
When you tried to extract these archive using 7zip, you got error like below.
After a few hours researching the correct combination of command line options and arguments, I finally get 7zip to extract archive files with name in Japanese correctly, but it is pain to input those every time.
That's why I created this program.
- Download the archive from Releases.
- Extract to anywhere you like.
- (Optional) Set up the PATH pointed to the directory that you extract the archive. This to make sure that jp7zip is accessible to anywhere in your system.
jpzip [-h] [-o OUTPUT | -os] input
input (Required) Input archive.
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
Output directory. If not specified, output will be at the same directory as the archive.
-os, --output_same Output to a new directory with same name with the archive name.
jpzip <path to input archive> [-o|--output] <path to output directory>
jpzip <path to input archive> [-os|--output_same]
jpzip <path to input archive>
The actual command that passed to 7zip is:
7za.exe x -mcp=932 <input archive> -o<output directory>
