<para><command>bzip</command> is a compression program. It is rarely
|
|
used today, having been replaced with bzip2, which offers much better
|
|
compression.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The bzip tdeioslave is not directly usable, and is intended for use
|
|
as a filter. For example, the tar tdeioslave can filter a file through
|
|
the bzip tdeioslave, in order to display the contents of a <literal
|
|
role="extension">tar.bz</literal> file directly in a &konqueror;
|
|
window.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you click on a file compressed with a <literal
|
|
role="extension">bz</literal> extension in &konqueror;, this tdeioslave is
|
|
used to uncompress it and display it as a normal (uncompressed)
|
|
file.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you are a developer, and would like to use the bzip filter,
|
|
you can find documentation on using tdeioslaves at <ulink
