I have 7z 4.65 and am trying to extract a single file to standard output. The 7z command-line help says -so
is the command-line parameter to extract to standard output, but when I try this:
>>> 7z e -so dist\dlogpkg.jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

Error:
I won't write data and program's messages to same terminal
how can I fix this? There doesn't seem to be a command line param to suppress the normal 7z stdout messages.
(edit: the equivalent operation in "unzip" would be
unzip -p dist\dlogpkg.jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
which works fine. But I'd like to use 7z for various reasons.)
