The current file (4.55) that is available on the FDUPDATE site is in 7ZIP.ZIP. And the ones from official FreeDOS 1.0 are 7ZIPX.ZIP and 7ZIPS.ZIP. So to make it clear that it's not the same one as those (and can easily be renamed), I chose 7ZIP465X.ZIP and 7ZIP465X.ZIP. No, I didn't call it p7zip because that wouldn't fit in 8.3. Besides, technically speaking, it shouldn't confuse anybody who knows that this is the DOS/DJGPP compile of the POSIX port (since HX uses the Win32 one).

P.S. p7zip actually compiles to "7za" or "7zr" or "7z", not "p7zip" etc. And yet I did rename the binary files "p7zip.exe", "p7zipr.exe" for clarity.
