2009-08-09 | xzless: Support compressed standard input | Jonathan Nieder | 1 | -1/+7 | |
It can be somewhat confusing that less < some_file.txt works fine, whereas xzless < some_file.txt.xz does not. Since version 429, ‘less’ allows a filter specified in the LESSOPEN environment variable to preprocess its input even if it comes from standard input, if $LESSOPEN begins with ‘|-’. So set $LESSOPEN to take advantage of this feature. Check less’s version at runtime so xzless can continue to work with older versions. | |||||

2009-07-05 | Major update to the xzgrep and other scripts based on | Lasse Collin | 1 | -0/+51 | |
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. |
