This has been achieved by simply ignoring all command +line arguments except +.BR \-\-help . +.SH DIAGNOSTICS +.B lzmadec +returns +.B 0 +on success and +.B 1 +on error. Checking the exit status is the only way to detect errors because +.B lzmadec +never prints any messages except when +.B \-\-help +is specified. +.SH EXAMPLES +You can replace +.B lzma +executable with +.B lzmadec +for example in this kind of situations: +.br +.B lzma \-d < myfile.lzma > myfile || echo Error +.br +.B lzma \-d < myfile.lzma | less +.br +.B tar xf myfile.tar.lzma --use=lzma myfile1.bin myfile2.txt +.br +.B tar xYf myfile.tar.lzma +(Requires tar patched to support LZMA.) +.SH AUTHORS +LZMAdec +.RB ( lzmadec ) +is part of the LZMA utils written originally for the Tukaani Linux by +Lasse Collin <lasse.collin@tukaani.org>. +http://tukaani.org/lzma/ +.PP +The actual decoding is done by the code from the LZMA SDK written by +Igor Pavlov. http://7-zip.org/sdk.html +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR lzma (1), +.BR lzmainfo (1) |
