NAME

       clzip - reduces the size of files

SYNOPSIS

       clzip [options] [files]

DESCRIPTION

       Clzip - LZMA lossless data compressor.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              display this help and exit

       -V, --version
              output version information and exit

       -b, --member-size=<bytes>
              set member size limit in bytes

       -c, --stdout
              send output to standard output

       -d, --decompress
              decompress

       -f, --force
              overwrite existing output files

       -F, --recompress
              force re-compression of compressed files

       -k, --keep
              keep (don't delete) input files

       -m, --match-length=<bytes>
              set match length limit in bytes [36]

       -o, --output=<file>
              if reading stdin, place the output into <file>

       -q, --quiet
              suppress all messages

       -s, --dictionary-size=<bytes>
              set dictionary size limit in bytes [8 MiB]

       -S, --volume-size=<bytes>
              set volume size limit in bytes

       -t, --test
              test compressed file integrity

       -v, --verbose
              be verbose (a 2nd -v gives more)

       -0 .. -9
              set compression level [default 6]

       --fast alias for -0

       --best alias for -9

       If  no  file  names  are  given, clzip compresses or decompresses from standard input to standard output.
       Numbers may be followed by a multiplier: k = kB = 10^3 = 1000, Ki = KiB = 2^10 = 1024, M  =  10^6,  Mi  =
       2^20,  G = 10^9, Gi = 2^30, etc...  The bidimensional parameter space of LZMA can't be mapped to a linear
       scale optimal for all files. If your files are large, very repetitive, etc,  you  may  need  to  use  the
       --match-length and --dictionary-size options directly to achieve optimal performance.

       Exit  status:  0  for  a  normal  exit,  1 for environmental problems (file not found, invalid flags, I/O
       errors, etc), 2 to indicate a corrupt or invalid input file, 3 for an  internal  consistency  error  (eg,
       bug) which caused clzip to panic.
