 Description
 
 Clzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the
-one of gzip or bzip2. Clzip decompresses almost as fast as gzip,
-compresses most files more than bzip2, and is better than both from a
-data recovery perspective. Clzip is a clean implementation of the LZMA

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