NAME
|
|
lzmainfo - show information stored in the .lzma file header
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
lzmainfo [--help] [--version] [file...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
lzmainfo shows information stored in the .lzma file header. It reads
|
|
the first 13 bytes from the specified file, decodes the header, and
|
|
prints it to standard output in human readable format. If no files are
|
|
given or file is -, standard input is read.
|
|
|
|
Usually the most interesting information is the uncompressed size and
|
|
the dictionary size. Uncompressed size can be shown only if the file
|
|
is in the non-streamed .lzma format variant. The amount of memory
|
|
required to decompress the file is a few dozen kilobytes plus the dic-
|
|
tionary size.
|
|
|
|
lzmainfo is included in XZ Utils primarily for backward compatibility
|
|
with LZMA Utils.
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
0 All is good.
|
|
|
|
1 An error occurred.
|
|
|
|
BUGS
|
|
lzmainfo uses MB while the correct suffix would be MiB (2^20 bytes).
|
|
This is to keep the output compatible with LZMA Utils.
