- There is limited sandboxing support in the xz tool. If
- built with sandbox support, it's used automatically when
- (de)compressing exactly one file to standard output and
- the options --files or --files0 weren't used. This is a
- common use case, for example, (de)compressing .tar.xz
- files via GNU tar. The sandbox is also used for
- single-file 'xz --test' or 'xz --list'.
