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 - Decompresses and copies files to standard output.
|
||
|
|
Zcmp - Decompresses and compares two files byte by byte.
|
||
|
|
Zdiff - Decompresses and compares two files line by line.
|
||
|
|
Zgrep - Decompresses and searches files for a regular expression.
|
||
|
|
Ztest - Tests integrity of compressed files.
