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 and provides a 3 factor integrity

checking to maximize interoperability and optimize safety. Lzip can compress
|

about as fast as gzip (lzip -0) or compress most files more than bzip2

The member trailer stores the 32-bit CRC of the original data, the size
