CLI entry point

[be5invis]

7-zip has a useful CLI entry point 7z.exe that allows users to compress/decompress files in the command line. NanaZip should support this too.

NanaZip should support this too.

I always think expose execution alias of command line version (Windows subsystem version and Console subsystem version) and graphical version is necessary. So I wonder to expose NanaZip, NanaZipC and NanaZipG to user. But I have met an issue when I upload it to the dashboard.

I need the way to solve it but I don't know that.

From this:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/PC/store_info.txt

It looks like:

When submitting a new app, the HeadlessAppBypass waiver will be needed.
To request this, send an email to PartnerOps@microsoft.com with the app
ID (12 character token available from the dashboard). The waiver needs
to be applied before uploading the package (as of November 2019).

@be5invis

I had sent a mail to Microsoft and they approved me yesterday.

So I can add this feature again.

Hi:
To use CLI, where the path I should add into PATH of environment variable?

Reply #4 (comment) (@curly-wei) : NanaZip is packaged by MSIX, so this means NanaZip uses AppModel. As a result, we can't add it into PATH of environment variable, and you can only set a app execution aliase. For example(Win 11 22H2 Build 22621), Settings(UWP App) -> Apps -> Advanced app settings -> App execution aliases. Thanks for your support.
