<para><command>bzip</command> is a compression program. It is rarely used today, having been replaced with bzip2, which offers much better compression.</para>
|

|
|
<para>The bzip tdeioslave is not directly usable, and is intended for use as a filter. For example, the tar tdeioslave can filter a file through the bzip tdeioslave, in order to display the contents of a <literal role="extension">tar.bz</literal> file directly in a &konqueror; window.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you click on a file compressed with a <literal role="extension">bz</literal> extension 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 bzip filter, you can find documentation on using tdeioslaves at <ulink url="http://developer.kde.org">http://developer.kde.org</ulink></para>
