Transfer Archive Files containing Chinese Filenames between Linux and Windows


From Windows to Linux

Download 7-Zip Windows installer (7z920-x64.msi for now) and install it.

Create archive file in "7z" format.

On Linux, extract it with 7z x mypkg.7z. Or test it with 7z l mypkg.7z.

Note: You can create zip file with 7-Zip as well, but it can't handle Chinese filename correctly on Linux.

From Linux to Windows

Install 7-Zip on Mint: sudo aptitude install p7zip-full;

p7zip is command line port of 7-Zip for POSIX systems, including Linux.

Create archive file "myPkg.zip" from path "targetPath": 7z a filename.zip targetPath;

7z and zip format both handle Chinese filename correctly.

On Windows, install 7-Zip (see above section), and extract it with it.
