GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
Version 2, June 1991
|
||||
|
||||
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
|
||||
675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
|
||||
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
||||
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
Preamble
|
||||
|
||||
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
||||
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
||||
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
|
||||
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
|
||||
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
|
||||
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
|
||||
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
|
||||
your programs, too.
|
||||
|
||||
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
||||
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
|
||||
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
|
||||
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
|
||||
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
|
||||
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
|
||||
|
||||
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
||||
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
|
||||
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
|
||||
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
||||
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
|
||||
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
|
||||
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
|
||||
rights.
|
||||
|
||||
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
|
||||
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
|
||||
distribute and/or modify the software.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
|
||||
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
|
||||
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
|
||||
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
|
||||
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
|
||||
authors' reputations.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
|
||||
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
|
||||
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
|
||||
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
||||
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
|
||||
|
||||
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
||||
modification follow.
|
||||
|
||||
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
||||
|
||||
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
|
||||
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
|
||||
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
|
||||
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
|
||||
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
|
||||
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
|
||||
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
|
||||
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
|
||||
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
||||
|
||||
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
||||
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
||||
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
|
||||
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
|
||||
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
|
||||
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
|
||||
|
||||
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
|
||||
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
|
||||
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
|
||||
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
|
||||
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
|
||||
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
|
||||
along with the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
|
||||
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
|
||||
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
|
||||
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
||||
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
|
||||
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
||||
|
||||
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
|
||||
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
|
||||
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
|
||||
parties under the terms of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
|
||||
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
|
||||
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
|
||||
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
|
||||
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
|
||||
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
|
||||
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
||||
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
|
||||
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
|
||||
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
|
||||
|
||||
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
||||
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
|
||||
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
||||
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
||||
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
||||
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
||||
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
||||
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
||||
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
||||
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
||||
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
||||
collective works based on the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
|
||||
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
|
||||
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
||||
the scope of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
|
||||
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
||||
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
|
||||
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
|
||||
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
|
||||
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
|
||||
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
|
||||
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
|
||||
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
|
||||
customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
|
||||
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
|
||||
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
|
||||
received the program in object code or executable form with such
|
||||
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
|
||||
|
||||
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
||||
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
|
||||
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
|
||||
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
|
||||
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
|
||||
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
|
||||
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
||||
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
||||
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
|
||||
itself accompanies the executable.
|
||||
|
||||
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
|
||||
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
|
||||
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
|
||||
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
|
||||
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
|
||||
|
||||
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
|
||||
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
|
||||
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
|
||||
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
|
||||
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
|
||||
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
||||
parties remain in full compliance.
|
||||
|
||||
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
||||
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
||||
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
|
||||
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
||||
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
||||
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
||||
the Program or works based on it.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
||||
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
|
||||
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
||||
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
||||
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
|
||||
this License.
|
||||
|
||||
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
||||
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
||||
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
||||
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
||||
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
||||
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
||||
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
||||
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
|
||||
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
|
||||
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
||||
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
||||
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
||||
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
|
||||
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
||||
circumstances.
|
||||
|
||||
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
||||
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
||||
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
||||
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
|
||||
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
||||
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
||||
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
||||
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
||||
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
||||
impose that choice.
|
||||
|
||||
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
||||
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
|
||||
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
|
||||
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
|
||||
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
|
||||
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
|
||||
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
|
||||
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
||||
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
|
||||
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
||||
address new problems or concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|
||||
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
|
||||
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
|
||||
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
|
||||
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
|
||||
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation.
|
||||
|
||||
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
|
||||
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
|
||||
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
|
||||
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
|
||||
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
|
||||
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
|
||||
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
|
||||
|
||||
NO WARRANTY
|
||||
|
||||
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
|
||||
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
|
||||
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
|
||||
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
|
||||
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
|
||||
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
|
||||
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
|
||||
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
|
||||
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
||||
|
||||
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
|
||||
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
|
||||
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
|
||||
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
|
||||
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
|
||||
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
|
||||
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
|
||||
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
|
||||
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
|
||||
|
||||
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
|
||||
|
||||
Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
|
||||
|
||||
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
|
||||
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
|
||||
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
|
||||
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
|
||||
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
|
||||
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
|
||||
|
||||
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
|
||||
Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author>
|
||||
|
||||
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
|
||||
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
|
||||
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
|
||||
(at your option) any later version.
|
||||
|
||||
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
|
||||
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
|
||||
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
|
||||
GNU General Public License for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
|
||||
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
|
||||
|
||||
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
|
||||
|
||||
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
|
||||
when it starts in an interactive mode:
|
||||
|
||||
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
|
||||
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
|
||||
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
|
||||
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
|
||||
|
||||
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
|
||||
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
|
||||
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
|
||||
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
|
||||
|
||||
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
|
||||
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
|
||||
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
|
||||
|
||||
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
|
||||
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
|
||||
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
|
||||
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
|
||||
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
|
||||
Public License instead of this License.

Current Version: 1.1.1
|
||||
See the file ChangeLog for the details of all changes.
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.1 to 1.1.1.
|
||||
* Fix serious bug in vms.c (affects Vax/VMS only).
|
||||
* Added --ascii option.
|
||||
* Add workaround in configure.in for Ultrix (quote eval argument)
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.7 to 1.1.
|
||||
* Use .gz suffix by default, add --suffix option.
|
||||
* Let gunzip accept a "_z" suffix (used by one 'compress' on Vax/VMS).
|
||||
* Quit when reading garbage from stdin instead of reporting an error.
|
||||
* Added makefile for VAX/MMS and support for wildcards on VMS.
|
||||
* Added support for MSC under OS/2.
|
||||
* Added support for Prime/PRIMOS.
|
||||
* Display compression ratio also when decompressing (with --verbose).
|
||||
* Quit after --version (GNU standard)
|
||||
* Use --force to bypass isatty() check
|
||||
* Continue processing other files in case of recoverable error.
|
||||
* Added comparison of zip and gzip in the readme file.
|
||||
* Added small sample programs (ztouch, sub, add)
|
||||
* Use less memory when compiled with -DSMALL_MEM (for MSDOS).
|
||||
* Remove the "off by more than one minute" time stamp kludge
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7.
|
||||
* Allow zmore to read from standard input (like more).
|
||||
* Support the 68000 (Atari ST) in match.S.
|
||||
* Retry partial writes (required on Linux when gzip is suspended in a pipe).
|
||||
* Allow full pathnames and renamings in gzexe.
|
||||
* Don't let gzexe compress setuid executables or gzip itself.
|
||||
* Added vms/Makefile.gcc for gcc on the Vax.
|
||||
* Allow installation of binaries and shell scripts in different dirs.
|
||||
* Allows complex PAGER variable in zmore (e.g.: PAGER="col -x | more")
|
||||
* Allow installation of zcat as gzcat.
|
||||
* Several small changes for portability to old or weird systems.
|
||||
* Suppress help message and send compressed data to the terminal when
|
||||
gzip is invoked without parameters and without redirection.
|
||||
* Add compile option GNU_STANDARD to respect the GNU coding standards:
|
||||
with -DGNU_STANDARD, behave as gzip even if invoked under the name gunzip.
|
||||
(I don't like the last two changes, which were requested by the FSF.)
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.5 to 1.0.6.
|
||||
* Let gzexe detect executables that are already gzexe'd.
|
||||
* Keep file attributes in znew and gzexe if cpmod is available.
|
||||
* Don't try restoring record format on VMS (1.0.5 did not work correctly)
|
||||
* Added asm version for 68000 in amiga/match.a.
|
||||
Use asm version for Atari TT and NeXT.
|
||||
* For OS/2, assume HPFS by default, add flag OS2FAT if necessary.
|
||||
* Fixed some bugs in zdiff and define zcmp as a link to zdiff.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.4 to 1.0.5.
|
||||
* For VMS, restore the file type for variable record format, otherwise
|
||||
extract in fixed length format (not perfect, but better than
|
||||
forcing all files to be in stream_LF format).
|
||||
* For VMS, use "-z" default suffix and accept a version number in file names.
|
||||
* For Unix, allow compression of files with name ending in 'z'. Use only
|
||||
.z, .*-z, .tgz, .taz as valid gzip extensions. In the last two cases,
|
||||
extract to .tar by default.
|
||||
* On some versions of MSDOS, files with a 3 character extension could not
|
||||
be compressed.
|
||||
* Garbage collect files in /tmp created by gzexe.
|
||||
* Fix the 'OS code' byte in the gzip header.
|
||||
* For the Amiga, add the missing utime.h and add support for gcc.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4.
|
||||
* Added optimized asm version for 68020.
|
||||
* Add support for DJGPP.
|
||||
|
||||
* Add support for the Atari ST.
|
||||
* Added zforce to rename gzip'ed files with truncated names.
|
||||
* Do not install with name uncompress (some systems rely on the
|
||||
absence of any check in the old uncompress).
|
||||
* Added missing function (fcfree) in msdos/tailor.c
|
||||
* Let gunzip handle .tgz files, and let gzip skip them.
|
||||
* Added -d option (decompress) for gzexe and try preserving file permissions.
|
||||
* Suppress all warnings with -q.
|
||||
* Use GZIP_OPT for VMS to avoid conflict with program name.
|
||||
* ... and many other small changes (see ChangeLog)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3
|
||||
* Added -K option for znew to keep old .Z files if smaller
|
||||
* Added -q option (quiet) to cancel -v in GZIP env variable.
|
||||
* Made gzexe safer on systems with filename limitation to 14 chars.
|
||||
* Fixed bugs in handling of GZIP env variable and incorrect free with Turbo C.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2
|
||||
* Added env variable GZIP for default options. Example:
|
||||
for sh: GZIP="-8 -v"; export GZIP
|
||||
for csh: setenv GZIP "-8 -v"
|
||||
* Added support for the Amiga.
|
||||
* znew now keeps the old .Z if it is smaller than the .z file.
|
||||
This can happen for some large and very redundant files.
|
||||
* Do not complain about trailing garbage for record oriented IO (Vax/VMS).
|
||||
This implies however that multi-part gzip files are not supported
|
||||
on such systems.
|
||||
* Added gzexe to compress rarely used executables.
|
||||
* Reduce memory usage (required for MSDOS and useful on all systems).
|
||||
* Preserve time stamp in znew -P (pipe option) if touch -r works.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 1.0 to 1.0.1
|
||||
* fix trivial errors in the Borland makefile (msdos/Makefile.bor)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 0.8.2 to 1.0
|
||||
* gzip now runs on Vax/VMS
|
||||
* gzip will not not overwrite files without -f when using /bin/sh in
|
||||
background.
|
||||
* Support the test option -t for compressed (.Z) files.
|
||||
Allow some data recovery for bad .Z files.
|
||||
* Added makefiles for MSDOS (Only tested for MSC, not Borland).
|
||||
* still more changes to configure for several systems
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 0.8.1 to 0.8.2:
|
||||
* yet more changes to configure for Linux and other systems
|
||||
* Allow zcat on a file with multiple links.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 0.8 to 0.8.1:
|
||||
* znew has now a pipe option -P to reduce the disk space requirements,
|
||||
but this option does not preserve timestamps.
|
||||
* Fixed some #if directives for compilation with TurboC.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 0.7 to 0.8:
|
||||
* gzip can now extract .z files created by 'pack'.
|
||||
* configure should no longer believe that every machine is a 386
|
||||
* Fix the entry for /etc/magic in INSTALL.
|
||||
* Add patch for GNU tar 1.11.1 and a pointer to crypt++.el
|
||||
* Uncompress files with multiple links only with -f.
|
||||
* Fix for uncompress of .Z files on 16-bit machines
|
||||
* Create a correct output name for file names of exactly N-1 chars when
|
||||
the system has a limit of N chars.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes from 0.6 to 0.7:
|
||||
* Use "make check" instead of "make test".
|
||||
* Keep time stamp and pass options to gzip in znew.
|
||||
* Do not create .z.z files with gzip -r.
|
||||
* Allow again gunzip .zip files (was working in 0.5)
|
||||
* Allow again compilation with TurboC 2.0 (was working in 0.4)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Major changes form 0.5 to 0.6:
|
||||
* gunzip reported an error when extracting certain .z files. The .z files
|
||||
produced by gzip 0.5 are correct and can be read by gunzip 0.6.
|
||||
* gunzip now supports multiple compressed members within a single .z file.
|
||||
* Fix the check for i386 in configure.
|
||||
* Added "make test" to check for compiler bugs. (gcc -finline-functions
|
||||
is broken at least on the NeXT.)
|
||||
* Use environment variable PAGER in zmore if it is defined.
|
||||
* Accept gzcat in addition to zcat for people having /usr/bin before
|
||||
/usr/local/bin in their path.

This is the file README for the gzip distribution, version 1.1.1.
|
||||
|
||||
gzip (GNU zip) is a compression utility designed to be a replacement
|
||||
for 'compress'. Its main advantages over compress are much better
|
||||
compression and freedom from patented algorithms. The GNU Project
|
||||
uses it as the standard compression program for its system.
|
||||
|
||||
gzip currently uses by default the LZ77 algorithm used in zip 1.9 (the
|
||||
portable pkzip compatible archiver). The gzip format was however
|
||||
designed to accommodate several compression algorithms. See below
|
||||
for a comparison of zip and gzip.
|
||||
|
||||
gunzip can currently decompress files created by gzip, compress or
|
||||
pack. The detection of the input format is automatic. For the
|
||||
gzip format, gunzip checks a 32 bit CRC. For pack, gunzip checks the
|
||||
uncompressed length. The 'compress' format was not designed to allow
|
||||
consistency checks. However gunzip is sometimes able to detect a bad
|
||||
.Z file because there is some redundancy in the .Z compression format.
|
||||
If you get an error when uncompressing a .Z file, do not assume that
|
||||
the .Z file is correct simply because the standard uncompress does not
|
||||
complain. This generally means that the standard uncompress does not
|
||||
check its input, and happily generates garbage output.
|
||||
|
||||
gzip produces files with a .gz extension. Previous versions of gzip
|
||||
used the .z extension, which was already used by the 'pack'
|
||||
Huffman encoder. gunzip is able to decompress .z files (packed
|
||||
or gzip'ed).
|
||||
|
||||
Several planned features are not yet supported (see the file TODO).
|
||||
See the file NEWS for a summary of changes since 0.5. See the file
|
||||
INSTALL for installation instructions. Some answers to frequently
|
||||
asked questions are given in the file INSTALL, please read it. (In
|
||||
particular, please don't ask me once more for an /etc/magic entry.)
|
||||
|
||||
WARNINGS about broken optimizers:
|
||||
|
||||
- on the NeXT, "cc -finline-functions" is broken. gzip produces
|
||||
valid .z files but they are much too large because the string
|
||||
matching code misses most matches. Use "cc -O" instead.
|
||||
|
||||
- on the Mips R4000, gcc -O (version 2.3.1) generates bad code, use cc
|
||||
or just gcc -g instead.
|
||||
|
||||
- gcc 2.3.3 on the SGI Indigo IRIX 4.0.5 also produces bad code. Use
|
||||
instead: make CC='cc -O2' or gcc without -O.
|
||||
|
||||
- on Sparc with SunOS 4.1.1 and the SC1.0 compiler, the optimizer
|
||||
works up to -O3 but -O4 does not work.
|
||||
|
||||
- MSC 5.1 with -Ox and -DDYN_ALLOC generates bad code in inflate.c.
|
||||
The default is static allocation (no DYN_ALLOC) and -Ox works on inflate.c.
|
||||
But -Ox does not work on util.c, so you must use -Oait -Gs.
|
||||
|
||||
- On dnix 5.3 2.2 cc version 2.37c is buggy. Version 2.38d works.
|
||||
|
||||
For all machines, Use "make check" to check that gzip was compiled correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
Please send all comments and bug reports by electronic mail to:
|
||||
Jean-loup Gailly <jloup@chorus.fr>
|
||||
|
||||
or, if this fails, to bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu.
|
||||
Bug reports should ideally include:
|
||||
|
||||
* The complete output of "gzip -V" (or the contents of revision.h
|
||||
if you can't get gzip to compile)
|
||||
* The hardware and operating system (try "uname -a")
|
||||
* The compiler used to compile (if it is gcc, use "gcc -v")
|
||||
* A description of the bug behavior
|
||||
* The input to gzip, that triggered the bug
|
||||
|
||||
The package crypt++.el is highly recommended to manipulate gzip'ed
|
||||
file from emacs. It recognizes automatically encrypted and compressed
|
||||
files when they are first visited or written. It is available via
|
||||
anonymous ftp to roebling.poly.edu [128.238.5.31] in /pub/crypt++.el.
|
||||
The same directory contains also patches to dired, ange-ftp and info.
|
||||
GNU tar 1.11.2 has a -z option to invoke directly gzip, so you don't have
|
||||
to patch it.
|
||||
|
||||
The znew and gzexe shell scripts provided with gzip benefit from
|
||||
(but do not require) the cpmod utility to transfer file attributes.
|
||||
It is available by anonymous ftp on gatekeeper.dec.com in
|
||||
/.0/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume11/cpmod.Z.
|
||||
|
||||
The sample programs zread.c, sub.c and add.c are provided as examples
|
||||
of useful complements to gzip. Read the comments inside each source file.
|
||||
The perl script ztouch is also provided as example (not installed
|
||||
by default since it relies on perl).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
gzip is free software, you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
|
||||
the terms of the GNU General Public License, a copy of which is
|
||||
provided under the name COPYING. The latest version of gzip are always
|
||||
available by ftp in prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu, or in any of the prep
|
||||
mirror sites:
|
||||
|
||||
- sources in gzip-*.tar (or .shar or .tar.z)
|
||||
- Solaris 2 executables in sparc-sun-solaris2/gzip-binaries-*.tar
|
||||
- MSDOS lha self-extracting exe in gzip-msdos-*.exe. Once extracted,
|
||||
copy gzip.exe to gunzip.exe and zcat.exe, or use "gzip -d" to decompress.
|
||||
|
||||
A VMS executable is available in ftp.spc.edu:[.macro32.savesets]gzip-1-*.zip
|
||||
(use [.macro32]unzip.exe to extract).
|
||||
|
||||
Many thanks to those who provided me with bug reports and feedback.
|
||||
See the files THANKS and ChangeLog for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note about zip vs. gzip:
|
||||
|
||||
The name 'gzip' was a very unfortunate choice, because zip and gzip
|
||||
are two really different programs, although the actual compression and
|
||||
decompression sources were written by the same persons. A different
|
||||
name should have been used for gzip, but it is too late to change now.
|
||||
|
||||
zip is an archiver: it compresses several files into a single archive
|
||||
file. gzip is a simple compressor: each file is compressed separately.
|
||||
Both share the same compression and decompression code for the
|
||||
'deflate' method. unzip can also decompress old zip archives
|
||||
(implode, shrink and reduce methods). gunzip can also decompress files
|
||||
created by compress and pack. zip 1.9 and gzip do not support
|
||||
compression methods other than deflation. (zip 1.0 supports shrink and
|
||||
implode). Better compression methods may be added in future versions
|
||||
of gzip. zip will always stick to absolute compatibility with pkzip,
|
||||
it is thus constrained by PKWare, which is a commercial company. The
|
||||
gzip header format is deliberately different from that of pkzip to
|
||||
avoid such a constraint.
|
||||
|
||||
On Unix, gzip is mostly useful in combination with tar. GNU tar
|
||||
1.11.2 has a -z option to invoke gzip automatically. "tar -z"
|
||||
compresses better than zip, since gzip can then take advantage of
|
||||
redundancy between distinct files. The drawback is that you must
|
||||
scan the whole tar.z file in order to extract a single file near
|
||||
the end; unzip can directly seek to the end of the zip file. There
|
||||
is no overhead when you extract the whole archive anyway.
|
||||
If a member of a .zip archive is damaged, other files can still
|
||||
be recovered. If a .tar.z file is damaged, files beyond the failure
|
||||
point cannot be recovered. (Future versions of gzip will have
|
||||
error recovery features.)
|
||||
|
||||
gzip and gunzip are distributed as a single program. zip and unzip
|
||||
are, for historical reasons, two separate programs, although the
|
||||
authors of these two programs work closely together in the info-zip
|
||||
team. zip and unzip are not associated with the GNU project.

TODO file for gzip.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the planned features include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Structure the sources so that the compression and decompression code
|
||||
form a library usable by any program, and write both gzip and zip on
|
||||
top of this library. This would ideally be a reentrant (thread safe)
|
||||
library, but this would degrade performance. In the meantime, you can
|
||||
look at the sample program zread.c.
|
||||
|
||||
- Make it convenient to define alternative user interfaces (in
|
||||
particular for windowing environments).
|
||||
|
||||
- Support in-memory compression for arbitrarily large amounts of data
|
||||
(zip currently supports in-memory compression only for a single buffer.)
|
||||
|
||||
- Map files in memory when possible, this is generally much faster
|
||||
than read/write. (zip currently maps entire files at once, this
|
||||
should be done in chunks to reduce memory usage.)
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a super-fast compression method, suitable for implementing
|
||||
file systems with transparent compression. One problem is that the
|
||||
best candidate (lzrw1) is patented twice (Waterworth 4,701,745
|
||||
and Gibson & Graybill 5,049,881). The lzrw series of algorithms
|
||||
are available by ftp in ftp.adelaide.edu.au:/pub/compression/lzrw*.
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a super-tight (but slow) compression method, suitable for long
|
||||
term archives. One problem is that the best versions of arithmetic
|
||||
coding are patented (4,286,256 4,295,125 4,463,342 4,467,317
|
||||
4,633,490 4,652,856 4,891,643 4,905,297 4,935,882 4,973,961
|
||||
5,023,611 5,025,258).
|
||||
|
||||
Note: I will introduce new compression methods only if they are
|
||||
significantly better in either speed or compression ratio than the
|
||||
existing method(s). So the total number of different methods should
|
||||
reasonably not exceed 3. (The current 9 compression levels are just
|
||||
tuning parameters for a single method, deflation.)
|
||||
|
||||
- Add optional error correction. One problem is that the current version
|
||||
of ecc cannot recover from inserted or missing bytes. It would be
|
||||
nice to recover from the most common error (transfer of a binary
|
||||
file in ascii mode).
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a block size (-b) option to improve error recovery in case of
|
||||
failure of a complete sector. Each block could be extracted
|
||||
independently, but this reduces the compression ratio.
|
||||
|
||||
- Use a larger window size to deal with some large redundant files that
|
||||
'compress' currently handles better than gzip.
|
||||
|
||||
- implement the following options:
|
||||
|
||||
-e encrypt
|
||||
-l list .z file contents
|
||||
|
||||
- support .Z files in SCO 'compress -H' format.
