2011-03-19Scripts: Add lzop (.lzo) support to xzdiff and xzgrep.Lasse Collin1-8/+14

2009-08-09“xzdiff a.xz b.xz” always failsJonathan Nieder1-1/+1
Attempts to compare two compressed files result in no output and exit status 2. Instead of going to standard output, ‘diff’ output is being captured in the xz_status variable along with the exit status from the decompression commands. Later, when this variable is examined for nonzero status codes, numerals from dates in the ‘diff’ output make it appear as though decompression failed. So let the ‘diff’ output leak to standard output with another file descriptor. (This trick is used in all similar contexts elsewhere in xzdiff and in the analogous context in gzip’s zdiff script.)

2009-07-05Major update to the xzgrep and other scripts based onLasse Collin1-0/+172
the latest versions found from gzip CVS repository. configure will try to find a POSIX shell to be used by the scripts. This should ease portability on systems which have pre-POSIX /bin/sh. xzgrep and xzdiff support .xz, .lzma, .gz, and .bz2 files. xzmore and xzless support only .xz and .lzma files. The name of the xz executable used in these scripts is now correct even if --program-transform-name has been used.
