See the new -description of '-o' in the manual. This change is backwards compatible only -when (de)compressing from standard input alone. Therefore commands like: - clzip -o foo.lz - bar < foo -must now be split into: - clzip -o foo.lz - < foo - clzip bar -or rewritten as: - clzip - bar < foo > foo.lz +In case of error in a numerical argument to a command line option, clzip +now shows the name of the option and the range of valid values. -When using '-c' or '-o', clzip now checks whether the output is a terminal -only once. +Several descriptions have been improved in manual, '--help', and man page. -Clzip now does not even open the output file if the input file is a terminal. - -The words 'decompressed' and 'compressed' have been replaced with the -shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when decompressing or testing. - -Option '--list' now reports corruption or truncation of the last header in a -multimenber file specifically instead of showing the generic message "Last -member in input file is truncated or corrupt." - -The commands needed to extract files from a tar.lz archive have been -documented in the manual, in the output of '--help', and in the man page. - -Plzip and tarlz are mentioned in the manual as alternatives for -multiprocessors. - -Several fixes and improvements have been made to the manual. - -9 new test files have been added to the testsuite. +The texinfo category of the manual has been changed from 'Data Compression' +to 'Compression' to match that of gzip.
