Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with 
very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of 
gzip or bzip2. Lziprecover is a data recovery tool for lzip-compressed 
files.

The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html.


Changes in this version:

  * For large values of "--match-length", (high compression levels), 
compression ratio has been slightly increased and compression time has 
been reduced by up to 6%.

Antonio Diaz, lzip author and maintainer.
