+.SH NAME
+xlunzip \- test tool for the lunzip linux module
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xlunzip
+[\fI\,options\/\fR] [\fI\,files\/\fR]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Xlunzip is a test tool for the lzip decompression code of my lzip patch
+for linux. Xlunzip is similar to lunzip, but it uses the lzip_decompress
+linux module as a backend. Xlunzip tests the module for stream,
+buffer\-to\-buffer and mixed decompression modes, including in\-place
+decompression (using the same buffer for input and output). You can use
+xlunzip to verify that the module produces correct results when
+decompressing single member files, multimember files, or the
+concatenation of two or more compressed files. Xlunzip can be used with
+unzcrash to test the robustness of the module to the decompression of
+corrupted data.
+.PP
+Note that the in\-place decompression of concatenated files can't be
+guaranteed to work because an arbitrarily low compression ratio of the
+last part of the data can be achieved by appending enough empty
+compressed members to a file.

+.TP
+\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR

+.SS "These options are ignored when --in-place is in effect:"
+.TP
+\fB\-\-insize[=\fR<size>]
+pre\-allocate and fill inbuf [default 16 KiB]
+.TP
+\fB\-\-outsize[=\fR<size>]
+pre\-allocate outbuf [default 512 MiB]
+.TP
+\fB\-\-nofill\fR
+do not pass a fill function; requires \fB\-\-insize\fR
+.TP
+\fB\-\-noflush\fR
+do not pass a flush function; requires \fB\-\-outsize\fR
+.PP
+If no file names are given, or if a file is '\-', xlunzip decompresses
+from standard input to standard output.
+Numbers may be followed by a multiplier: k = kB = 10^3 = 1000,
+Ki = KiB = 2^10 = 1024, M = 10^6, Mi = 2^20, G = 10^9, Gi = 2^30, etc...
+.PP
+Exit status: 0 for a normal exit, 1 for environmental problems (file
+not found, invalid flags, I/O errors, etc), 2 to indicate a corrupt or
+invalid input file, 3 for an internal consistency error (eg, bug) which
+caused xlunzip to panic.
