Please, test it and report any bugs you find.

Clzip is a C language version of lzip, fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer. As clzip is written in C, it may be easier to integrate in applications like package managers, embedded devices, or systems lacking a C++ compiler.

Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the one of gzip or bzip2. Lzip can compress about as fast as gzip (lzip -0), or compress most files more than bzip2 (lzip -9). Decompression speed is intermediate between gzip and bzip2. Lzip is better than gzip and bzip2 from a data recovery perspective.

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

Changes in this version:

* When creating multimember files or splitting the output in volumes, the dictionary size is now adjusted for each member individually.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, clzip author and maintainer.
