+ of RANGE are recognized, `BEGIN', `BEGIN-END', and `BEGIN,SIZE'.
+ If only BEGIN is specified, END is taken as the end of the file.
+ The produced bytes are sent to standard output unless the

+ desired data are decompressed and their integrity is verified.
+ This operation is more efficient in multimember files because it
