.TH ZNEW 1
.SH NAME
znew \- recompress .Z files to .gz files
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B znew
[ -ftv9PK] [ name.Z ... ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B Znew
command
recompresses files from .Z (compress) format to .gz (gzip) format.
If you want to recompress a file already in gzip format, rename the file
to force a .Z extension then apply znew.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-f
Force recompression from .Z to .gz format even if a .gz file already exists.
.TP
.B \-t
Tests the new files before deleting originals.
.TP
.B \-v
Verbose. Display the name and percentage reduction for each file compressed.
.TP
.B \-9
Use the slowest compression method (optimal compression).
.TP
.B \-P
Use pipes for the conversion to reduce disk space usage.
.TP
.B \-K
Keep a .Z file when it is smaller than the .gz file; implies
.BR -t .
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.BR gzip (1),
.BR zmore (1),
.BR zdiff (1),
.BR zgrep (1),
.BR zforce (1),
.BR gzexe (1),
.BR compress(1)
.SH BUGS
If the
.B \-P
option is used,
.B znew
does not maintain the timestamp if
.BR touch (1)
does not support the
.B \-r
option, and does not maintain permissions if
.BR chmod (1)
does not support the
.B \-\-reference
option.
