Please, test it and report any bugs you find.

Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with 
very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of 
gzip or bzip2.

The homepage is at http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html.

Changes in this version:

  * Compression speed has been improved for very repetitive files.

  * Lzdiff and lzgrep now accept "-h" for "--help" and "-V" for 
"--version".

Antonio Diaz, lzip author and maintainer.
