Lunzip is a decompressor for lzip files. It is written in C and its small size makes it well suited for embedded devices or software installers that need to decompress files but do not need compression capabilities. Lunzip is fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer and is able to decompress any lzip file using as little memory as 50 kB.

The lzip file format is designed for data sharing and long-term archiving, taking into account both data integrity and decoder availability.

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


Changes in this version:

  * The option '-l, --list' has been ported from lziprecover.

* It is now an error to specify two or more different operations in the command line (--decompress, --list or --test).

  * Decompression time has been reduced by 7%.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lunzip author and maintainer.

If you are distributing software compressed with xz, please consider using lzip instead. See http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/xz_inadequate.html and http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip_benchmark.html#busybox
