Lzip is a lossless data compressor with a user interface similar to the
one of gzip or bzip2. Lzip is about as fast as gzip, compresses most
files more than bzip2, and is better than both from a data recovery
perspective. Lzip is a clean implementation of the LZMA algorithm.
The lzip file format is designed for long-term data archiving. It is
clean, provides very safe 4 factor integrity checking, and is backed by
the recovery capabilities of lziprecover.

Changes in this version:
* Compression ratio of option "-9" has been slightly increased.
* Compression time of option "-0" has been reduced by 2%. "lzip -0"
is now comparable in compression speed and ratio to "gzip -6".
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lzip author and maintainer.
