+unRAR license + GNU LGPL Notes
+------------------------------
+
+Please check main restriction from unRar license:
+
+ 2. The unRAR sources may be used in any software to handle RAR
+ archives without limitations free of charge, but cannot be used
+ to re-create the RAR compression algorithm, which is proprietary.
+ Distribution of modified unRAR sources in separate form or as a
+ part of other software is permitted, provided that it is clearly
+ stated in the documentation and source comments that the code may
+ not be used to develop a RAR (WinRAR) compatible archiver.
+
+In brief it means:
+1) You can compile and use compiled files under GNU LGPL rules, since
+ unRAR license almost has no restrictions for compiled files.
+ You can link these compiled files to LGPL programs.
+2) You can fix bugs in source code and use compiled fixed version.
+3) You can not use unRAR sources to re-create the RAR compression algorithm.
+
+
+7zip\Compress\Rar29\Original folder contains files that are modified
+versions of original unRAR source code files.
+
+
+License notes
+-------------

+
+
+Notes:
+------
+7-Zip consists of COM modules (DLL files).
+But 7-Zip doesn't use standard COM interfaces for creating objects.
+Look at
+7zip\UI\Client7z folder for example of using DLL files of 7-Zip.
+Some DLL files can use other DLL files from 7-Zip.
+If you don't like it, you must use standalone version of DLL.
+To compile standalone version of DLL you must include all used parts
+to project and define some defs.
+For example, 7zip\Bundles\Format7z is a standalone version of 7z.dll
+that works with 7z format. So you can use such DLL in your project
+without additional DLL files.
