.SH NAME
tarlz \- creates tar archives with multimember lzip compression
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tarlz
[\fI\,options\/\fR] [\fI\,files\/\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Tarlz \- Archiver with multimember lzip compression.
Tarlz is a small and simple implementation of the tar archiver. By default
tarlz creates, lists and extracts archives in a simplified posix pax format
compressed with lzip on a per file basis. Each tar member is compressed in
its own lzip member, as well as the end\-of\-file blocks. This method is fully
backward compatible with standard tar tools like GNU tar, which treat the
resulting multimember tar.lz archive like any other tar.lz archive. Tarlz
can append files to the end of such compressed archives.
.PP
The tarlz file format is a safe posix\-style backup format. In case of
corruption, tarlz can extract all the undamaged members from the tar.lz
archive, skipping over the damaged members, just like the standard
(uncompressed) tar. Moreover, the option '\-\-keep\-damaged' can be used to
recover as much data as possible from each damaged member, and lziprecover
can be used to recover some of the damaged members.
