# l (List contents of archive) command

Lists contents of archive.

#### Examples

    7z l archive.zip

lists all files from archive archive.zip.

#### Notes

7-Zip doesn't use the system wildcard parser. 7-Zip doesn't follow the archaic rule by which *.* means any file. 7-Zip treats *.* as matching the name of any file that has an extension. To process all files, you must use a * wildcard.
