But it is a but outdated since new 7-Zip format LZMA2 released. If TC will support 7z.dll, users would update it manually.

MVV,
If the plugin would not be compiled from sources but use the dll, that would also be better.

Just my 3 cents.

This mind is great also, I thought about it. My think: TC should support internal unpacking via 7z.dll. Now 7z is a world-wide popular format, so it is necessary. Packer plugin should pack files using dll (so it won't be necessary for Ghisler to support packing via 7z.dll).
