So what I wanted to do. comperes(7zip) and split 600MB folder into 199MB parts but sadly when I tried to do this task with archive manager it gave me an error, but I know that if I use terminal it will work.

I looked this up in askubuntu and found out about this commend

7z a -v5m -mx0 ubuntu.7z  

I understand that v5m will split it to 5 mb parts and -mx0 means that it will not comperes it but I want it to comperes so what should I write instead of this -mx0

pleas note: I am using .7zip because I most probably will use this file on windows pc

thank you in advanced
