Changes in version 1.18:

"--repair" now tries to detect gross damage in the file before
attempting to repair it.

"--repair" now tries bytes at member offsets 7 and 8 first because
errors in these bytes sometimes can't be detected until the end of the
member.

The option "-a, --trailing-error", which makes lzip exit with error
status 2 if any remaining input is detected after decompressing the last
member, has been added.

The new option "-x, --show-packets", which shows the LZMA packets
(coding sequences) coded in a given file, has been added.

Decompression time has been reduced by 2%.

Up to 6 bytes of trailing data are printed when "-tvvvv" is specified.

Dictionary size and size of trailing data (if any) are printed when
"-lv" is specified.

The new chapter "Trailing data" has been added to the manual.

Fixed a harmless check failure on Windows caused by the failed
comparison of a message in text mode.
