Just got an e-mail from upstream. Valid options seem to be -0 to -8. Both the manpage and "paq8l -h" doesn't reflect this, but if you type paq8l by itself, it says:
---------------------------------------------------------- $ paq8l paq8l archiver (C) 2006, Matt Mahoney et al. Free under GPL, http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt To compress: paq8l -level file (compresses to file.paq8l) paq8l -level archive files... (creates archive.paq8l) paq8l file (level -5, pause when done) level: -0 = store, -1 -2 -3 = faster (uses 35, 48, 59 MB) -4 -5 -6 -7 -8 = smaller (uses 133, 233, 435, 837, 1643 MB) You may also compress directories. To extract or compare: paq8l -d dir1/archive.paq8l (extract to dir1) paq8l -d dir1/archive.paq8l dir2 (extract to dir2) paq8l archive.paq8l (extract, pause when done) To view contents: more < archive.paq8l Close this window or press ENTER to continue... --------------------------------------------------------- I hope this clarifies things. I wil probably make changes to the code, so it doesn't accept the -9 option. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
