Hey Y'all,
I'm looking at ZCad: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zcad/?source=directory
It looks like the kind of 3D CAD package that I've been looking for. It says that it works on Linux but it's zipped with 7-Zip which doesn't seem to be available for CentOS.
Does anyone know if ZCAD or 7-Zip is packaged for CentOS X86-64 somewhere out there?

On EL5 I have p7zip installed from rpmforge which handles 7-Zip files.

Oh wait! I found it, p7zip-9.20.1-2.el6.x86_64, right on the Add/Remove software tool. I was looking right at it but just didn't see it. Duh!
Okay then, next question. How do you get it to work? I can't figure out the command to run it so I can't use man to get a clue.
I tried p7zip, 7zip, etc... no luck.

rpm -ql p7zip
will list all the files associated with the package, including the executables and man pages.

Thank you for the help all. I've got it now. I just have to find ZCAD documentation in English which may be easier said than done. ;-)

Just type 7za at a command prompt for a help screen.
It should just start working by magic within nautilus, as well. Double-click on a .7z archive to view its contents.

7za is the command line tool, I use the one in EPEL package p7zip... usage is akin to zip and rar, in that 7z is both a archive container AND compression format, unlike gz, bz2, which are purely compression and rely on tar or another archiver to bundle multiple files into one.
$ 7za --help
