1 Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar
2 to the one of gzip or bzip2.
3 Lzip uses a simplified form of the 'Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain-Algorithm'
4 (LZMA) stream format, chosen to maximize safety and interoperability.
5 Lzip can compress about as fast as gzip (lzip -0) or compress most
6 files more than bzip2 (lzip -9).
7 Decompression speed is intermediate between gzip and bzip2.
8 Lzip is better than gzip and bzip2 from a data recovery perspective.
9 Lzip has been designed, written, and tested with great care to replace
10 gzip and bzip2 as the standard general-purpose compressed format
11 for unix-like systems.
