lrztar

A wrapper for lrzip to simplify compression of directories. See also: tar, lrzuntar, lrunzip. More information: https://manned.org/lrztar.

• Archive a directory with tar, then compress:

lrztar {{path/to/directory}}

• Same as above, with ZPAQ - extreme compression, but very slow:

lrztar {{[-z|--zpaq]}} {{path/to/directory}}

• Specify the output file:

lrztar {{[-o|--outfile]}} {{path/to/file}} {{path/to/directory}}

• Override the number of processor threads to use:

lrztar {{[-p|--threads]}} {{8}} {{path/to/directory}}

• Force overwriting of existing files:

lrztar {{[-f|--force]}} {{path/to/directory}}
