Eliminating it reduces the number of false +positives for corruption and makes error detection more accurate). + +When decompressing, the file specified with the '--output' option is now +deleted if the input is a terminal. + +The new chapter "Trailing data" has been added to the manual. + +A harmless check failure on Windows, caused by the failed comparison of +a message in text mode, has been fixed. |
