Stop processing options (--) for archivers?

Hello g00r00!
Just a suggestion to add "--" to the command lines (Pack Cmd, Unpack Cmd, View Cmd) of archivers, where possible, to avoid filenames starting with "-" to be interpreted as options.
My findings are that this can be done for zip, rar and 7z, but NOT for lha (or zoo or arc, if you have those).
N.B.: For the zip Unpack Cmd, the -- is not allowed until AFTER the archive name!
Pack Cmd │ zip -qj9 "%1" -- %2
Best regards
Björn
