Clzip 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.

Clzip uses the lzip file format; the files produced by clzip are fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer. Clzip is in fact a C language version of lzip, intended for embedded devices or systems lacking a C++ compiler.

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

Changes in this version:

* The option "-F, --recompress", which forces recompression of files whose name already has the ".lz" or ".tlz" suffix, has been added.

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

* Clzip now prints only one status line for each multimember file when only one "-v" is specified.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, clzip author and maintainer.
