7z questions and such

Question

I am wanting to learn the ropes with 7z. This isn't working...I followed 7z --help:

7z x -r beans.7z personal.php

I want to make a .7z file called "beans.7z" and what contains the file "personal.php"

The error I get is:

Error:
    there is no such archive

you're using x, when you should be using a. You're not extracting from an archive... you're creating one (adding to an archive) — Stephen Oberauer, Dec 02 '12 at 01:00
