On CentOS, at least in the EPEL repo, there is a man page for 7z.

I cover it very briefly on a page of mine,
http://home.roadrunner.com/~computertaijutsu/dvds.html#rar

Putting man page 7z into google comes up with several useful links. The

http://linux.die.net/man/1/7z

Is the man page itself.

http://www.dotnetperls.com/7-zip-examples

Has some examples of using it.

Mostly it's used to archive, with the a option and to uncompress an
