+From the XZ Utils README (included in the xz-utils package):
+
+1.3. Documentation for liblzma
+
+ The liblzma API headers include short docs about each function
+ and data type as Doxygen tags. These docs should be quite OK as
+ a quick reference.
+
+ I have planned to write a bunch of very well documented example
+ programs, which (due to comments) should work as a tutorial to
+ various features of liblzma. No such example programs have been
+ written yet.
+
+ For now, if you have never used liblzma, libbzip2, or zlib, I
+ recommend learning *basics* of zlib API. Once you know that, it
+ should be easier to learn liblzma.
