Common-Description:
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. Lzip has been designed, written, and tested with great
care to replace gzip and bzip2 as the standard general-purpose compressed
format for UNIX-like systems.
