-shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when decompressing or testing.
-
-Decompression speed has been slightly increased.

+Changes in version 0.6:
+
+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 not backwards compatible.
+Therefore commands like:
+  xlunzip -d -o foo - bar.lz < foo.lz
+must now be split into:
+  xlunzip -d -o foo - < foo.lz
+  xlunzip -d bar.lz
+or rewritten as:
+  xlunzip -d - bar.lz < foo.lz > foo
+
+In-place decompression of concatenated files should now work for any
+combination of files as long as they fit in memory and their total
+decompressed size is smaller than LONG_MAX minus a small extra space.
+
+The README file now includes an analysis of the amount of memory required
+for in-place decompression.
