to stdout even if --force is used. --force will still enable compression of symlinks, but only in case they point to a regular file. The new way simply seems more reasonable. It matches gzip's behavior while the old one matched bzip2's behavior.
2009-12-07Fix file_io.c on DOS-like systems.Lasse Collin1-0/+4
The problem was introduced when adding sparse file support in 465d1b0d6518c5d980f2db4c2d769f9905bdd902. Thanks to Charles Wilson.
2009-11-28Remove duplicate code in io_open_dest().Lasse Collin1-8/+1
Fix a missing _() in the error message too.

a regular file. Sparse file creation can be disabled with --no-sparse. I don't promise yet that the name of this option won't change before 5.0.0. It's possible that the code, that checks when it is safe to use sparse output on stdout, is not good enough, and a more flexible command line option is needed to configure sparse file handling.

Thanks to Jouk Jansen.
2009-09-22Better fixes for OpenVMS support.Lasse Collin1-3/+16
Thanks to Jouk Jansen.
2009-09-19Various changes.Lasse Collin1-21/+22
Separate a few reusable components from XZ Utils specific code. The reusable code is now in "tuklib" modules. A few more could be separated still, e.g. bswap.h. Fix some bugs in lzmainfo. Fix physmem and cpucores code on OS/2. Thanks to Elbert Pol for help. Add OpenVMS support into physmem. Add a few #ifdefs to ease building XZ Utils on OpenVMS. Thanks to Jouk Jansen for the original patch.
