Changes in version 1.11: Pdlzip now reports an error if a file name is empty (pdlzip -t ""). Option '-o, --output' now behaves like '-c, --stdout', but sending the output unconditionally to a file instead of to standard output. 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: pdlzip -o foo.lz - bar < foo must now be split into: pdlzip -o foo.lz - < foo pdlzip bar or rewritten as: pdlzip - bar < foo > foo.lz When using '-c' or '-o', pdlzip now checks whether the output is a terminal only once. Pdlzip now does not even open the output file if the input file is a terminal. It is now an error to specify two different operations in the command line (--decompress and --test). The words 'decompressed' and 'compressed' have been replaced with the shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when decompressing or testing. The commands needed to extract files from a tar.lz archive have been documented in the output of '--help' and in the man page. 9 new test files have been added to the testsuite.
