Everything supported by upstream 7-Zip.\n- One-click smart extraction that auto-picks the best destination and strips duplicate top-level folders.\n- Preview archives in Finder and files inside archives with Quick Look, without extracting.\n- Additional macOS-specific features, including stripping resource forks and best-effort integration with Finder.\n\n## Install\n\nRelease builds are available on the [Releases](https://github.com/idawnlight/ShichiZip/releases) page. Both arm64 and x86_64 builds for the mainline and Zstandard fork variants are provided.\n\nThis app is also available on [Homebrew Cask](https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/shichizip) and [MacPorts](https://ports.macports.org/port/shichizip/details/), but please note MacPorts version is built from source separately and not the same binary provided in releases. You may pick either package manager you prefer:\n\n```sh\n# Homebrew Cask\nbrew install --cask shichizip # Mainline Variant\nbrew install --cask shichizip-zs # Zstandard Fork Variant\n\n# MacPorts\nsudo port install shichizip # Mainline Variant\nsudo port install shichizip +zstd # Zstandard Fork Variant\n```\n\nIf you want to install the nightly builds or get more rapid updates via Homebrew Cask, you may use [a separate Homebrew Tap](https://github.com/shichizip/homebrew-tap); see the README of that repository for details.\n\n```sh\nbrew tap shichizip/tap\nbrew install --cask shichizip # / shichizip-zs / shichizip@nightly / shichizip-zs@nightly\n```\n\n## Build\n\nSee [BUILD.md](BUILD.md) for prerequisites, build steps for both variants, and an overview of the project layout. The [CI workflow](.github/workflows/build.yml) is the canonical reference if anything in the docs falls behind.\n\n## Contributing\n\nAll types of contribu",
