Zutils is a collection of utilities able to deal with any combination of
compressed and non-compressed files transparently. If any given file,
including standard input, is compressed, its decompressed content is
used. Compressed files are decompressed on the fly; no temporary files
are created.
These utilities are not wrapper scripts but safer and more efficient C++
programs. In particular the "--recursive" option is very efficient in
those utilities supporting it.
The provided utilities are zcat, zcmp, zdiff, zgrep and ztest.
The supported compressors are bzip2, gzip, lzip and xz.
Zcat, zcmp, zdiff and zgrep are improved replacements for the shell
scripts provided with GNU gzip. Ztest is unique to zutils.
The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/zutils/zutils.html
Changes in this version:
* Zgrep no more prefixes the file name to the output by default when
searching one file.
* A portability issue with Solaris 9 has been (hopefully) fixed.
* Minor fixes.
This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't
yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html

Antonio Diaz, zutils author and maintainer.
