Changes in version 1.10:
Changes in version 1.11:
The option '--loose-trailing', has been added.
Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing data has been
improved.
The test used by clzip to discriminate trailing data from a corrupt
header in multimember or concatenated files has been improved to a
Hamming distance (HD) of 3, and the 3 bit flips must happen in different
magic bytes for the test to fail. As a consequence some kinds of files
no longer can be appended to a lzip file as trailing data unless the
'--loose-trailing' option is used when decompressing.
Lziprecover can be used to remove conflicting trailing data from a file.
Errors are now also checked when closing the input file.
The contents of a corrupt or truncated header found in a multimember
file is now shown, after the error message, in the same format as
trailing data.
Clzip now compiles on DOS with DJGPP. (Patch from Robert Riebisch).
Option '-S, --volume-size' now keeps input files unchanged.
The descriptions of '-0..-9', '-m' and '-s' in the manual have been
improved.
When creating multimember files or splitting the output in volumes, the
dictionary size is now adjusted for each member individually.
The configure script now accepts appending options to CFLAGS using the
syntax 'CFLAGS+=OPTIONS'.
The 'bits/byte' ratio has been replaced with the inverse compression
ratio in the output.
The progress of decompression is now shown at verbosity level 2 (-vv) or
higher.
Progress of (de)compression is only shown if stderr is a terminal.
A final diagnostic is now shown at verbosity level 1 (-v) or higher if
any file fails the test when testing multiple files.
A second '.lz' extension is no longer added to the argument of '-o' if
it already ends in '.lz' or '.tlz'.
In case of (de)compressed size mismatch, the stored size is now also
shown in hexadecimal to ease visual comparison.
The dictionary size is now shown at verbosity level 4 (-vvvv) when
decompressing or testing.
The new chapter "Meaning of clzip's output" has been added to the manual.
It has been documented in INSTALL the use of
CFLAGS+='-D __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO' when compiling on MinGW.
