Lzip is a lossless data compressor based on the LZMA (Lempel-Ziv-Markov
|
|
chain-Algorithm) algorithm designed by Igor Pavlov. Lzip decompresses
|
|
almost as fast as gzip and compresses better than bzip2, but requires
|
|
more memory and time during compression. These features make lzip well
|
|
suited for software distribution and data archival.
|
|
Lzip has a user interface similar to the one of gzip or bzip2.
