<para>Bzip2 is a compression program</para>

<para>The bzip2 tdeioslave is not directly usable, and is intended for use as a filter. For example, the tar tdeioslave can filter a file through the bzip2 tdeioslave, in order to display the contents of a <literal role="extension">tar.bz2</literal> file directly in a &konqueror; window.</para>

<para>If you click on a file compressed with a <literal role="extension">.bz2</literal> in &konqueror;, this tdeioslave is used to uncompress it and display it as a normal (uncompressed) file.</para>

<para>If you are a developer, and would like to use the bzip2 filter, you can find documentation on using tdeioslaves at <ulink url="http://developer.kde.org">http://developer.kde.org</ulink></para>

<para>See the manual: <ulink url="man:/bzip2">bzip2</ulink>. </para>
