For example if you execute ``gzexe /bin/cat'' it -will create the following two files: -.nf -.br - -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 9644 Feb 11 11:16 /bin/cat - -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 24576 Nov 23 13:21 /bin/cat~ -.fi -/bin/cat~ is the original file and /bin/cat is the self-uncompressing -executable file. You can remove /bin/cat~ once you are sure that -/bin/cat works properly. -.PP -This utility is most useful on systems with very small disks. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B \-d -Decompress the given executables instead of compressing them. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -gzip(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zcmp(1), zforce(1) -.SH CAVEATS -The compressed executable is a shell script. This may create some -security holes. In particular, the compressed executable relies -on the PATH environment variable to find -.I gzip -and some other utilities -.I (tail, chmod, ln, sleep). -.SH "BUGS" -.I gzexe -attempts to retain the original file attributes on the compressed executable, -but you may have to fix them manually in some cases, using -.I chmod -or -.I chown. |
