#1636 Please create a GUI for linux
Hello, I would like to request a GUI since a lot of users are going to ditch windows (I guess) due the end of support of windows 10, and the new spyware of MS called Recall. and I know linux users loves command line for zip and unzip, but regulars user cant do this easily and this represent a huge deal for them. I hope you take this into consideration. and thanks for your work!
I am currently in the background working on a GUI called L7z, which aims to re-implement 7zFM on Linux (while using the official Linux version of 7-Zip as its backend). But I am not sure when I'll get around to actually finishing it, as school is quite stressful right now and I am more into web tech right now, so progress on L7z is slow. As a stop-gap solution you could also just install the Window$ version of 7-Zip inside WINE and use the official 7zFM. But of course I hope I can get L7z done not too far into the future and that it then takes off, because it will be better integrated into its *NIX environment.
