If any given file is compressed, its uncompressed +content is used. The supported compressors are gzip, bzip2, lzip and xz. +.PP +Zcmp is a shortcut for "zdiff \fB\-\-cmp\fR" +.PP +Compares FILE1 to FILE2. If FILE2 is omitted, compares FILE1 to the +uncompressed contents of FILE1.[gz|bz2|lz] (depending on the default +compressor selected). DIFF_OPTIONS are passed directly to diff or cmp. +The exit status from diff or cmp is preserved. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR +display this help and exit +.TP +\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR +output version information and exit +.TP +\fB\-\-gzip\fR +use gzip as default decompressor +.TP +\fB\-\-bzip2\fR +use bzip2 as default decompressor +.TP +\fB\-\-lzip\fR +use lzip as default decompressor (default) +.TP +\fB\-\-xz\fR +use xz as default decompressor +.TP +\fB\-\-diff\fR +use diff to compare files (default) +.TP +\fB\-\-cmp\fR +use cmp to compare files +.SH "REPORTING BUGS" +Report bugs to lzip\-bug@nongnu.org +Lzip home page: http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright \(co 2009 Antonio Diaz Diaz. +This script is free software: you have unlimited permission +to copy, distribute and modify it. |
