.PP
Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the one
of gzip or bzip2. Lzip uses a simplified form of the 'Lempel\-Ziv\-Markov
-chain\-Algorithm' (LZMA) stream format, chosen to maximize safety and
-interoperability. Lzip can compress about as fast as gzip (lzip \fB\-0\fR) or
-compress most files more than bzip2 (lzip \fB\-9\fR). Decompression speed is
-intermediate between gzip and bzip2. Lzip is better than gzip and bzip2 from
-a data recovery perspective. Lzip has been designed, written, and tested
-with great care to replace gzip and bzip2 as the standard general\-purpose
-compressed format for unix\-like systems.
