.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.I Gzip
encodes files with a hybrid Lempel-Ziv 1977 and Huffman compression algorithm
known as
.BR deflate .
Most of the time, the resulting file is smaller,
and will never be much bigger.
Output files are named by taking the last path element of each file argument
and appending
.BR .gz ;
if the resulting name ends with
.BR .tar.gz ,
it is converted to
.B .tgz
instead.
.I Gunzip
reverses the process.
Its output files are named by taking the last path element of each file argument,
converting
.B .tgz
to
.BR .tar.gz ,
and stripping any
.BR .gz ;
the resulting name must be different from the original name.
.PP
.I Bzip2
and
.I bunzip2
are similar in interface to
.I gzip
and
.IR gunzip ,
but use a modified Burrows-Wheeler block sorting
compression algorithm.
The default suffix for output files is
.BR .bz2 ,
with
.B .tar.bz2
becoming
.BR .tbz .
.I Bunzip2
recognizes the extension 
.B .tbz2
as a synonym for
.BR .tbz .
.PP
.I Zip
encodes the named files and places the results into the archive
.IR zipfile ,
or the standard output if no file is given.
.I Unzip
extracts files from an archive created by
.IR zip .
If no files are named as arguments, all of files in the archive are extracted.
A directory's name implies all recursively contained files and subdirectories.
.PP
None of these programs removes the original files.
If the process fails, the faulty output files are removed.
.PP
The options are:
.TP 1i
.B -c
Write to standard output rather than creating an output file.
.TP
.B -i
Convert all archive file names to lower case.
.TP
.B -s
Streaming mode.  Looks at the file data adjacent to each compressed file
rather than seeking in the central file directory.
This is the mode used by
.I unzip
if no
.I zipfile
is specified.
If
.B -s
is given,
.B -T
is ignored.
.TP
.B -t
List matching files in the archive rather than extracting them.
.TP
.B -T
Set the output time to that specified in the archive.
.TP
.BR -1 " .. " -9
Sets the compression level.
.B -1
is tuned for speed,
.B -9
for minimal output size.
The best compromise is
.BR -6 ,
the default.
.TP
.B -v
Produce more descriptive output.
With
.BR -t ,
adds the uncompressed size in bytes and the modification time to the output.
Without
.BR -t ,
prints the names of files on standard error as they are compressed or decompressed.
.TP
.B -D
Produce debugging output.

.SH BUGS
.I Unzip
can only extract files which are uncompressed or compressed
with the
.B deflate
compression scheme.  Recent zip files fall into this category.
