1 bzip2 is a freely available, patent free, high-quality data compressor. It
2 typically compresses files to within 10% to 15% of the best available
3 techniques (the PPM family of statistical compressors), whilst being around
4 twice as fast at compression and six times faster at decompression.
6 This package contains:
8 * `bzip2` - Compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text
9 compression algorithm with Huffman coding; the compression rate is better
10 than that achieved by more conventional compressors using "Lempel-Ziv"
11 algorithms, like gzip
12 * `bunzip2` - Decompresses bzipped files
13 * `bzcat` - Decompresses to standard output
