- .TH ZFORCE 1
- .SH NAME
- zforce \- force a '.gz' extension on all gzip files
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .B zforce
- [ name ... ]
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .I zforce
- forces a .gz extension on all
- .I gzip
- files so that
- .I gzip
- will not compress them twice.
- This can be useful for files with names truncated after a file transfer.
- On systems with a 14 char limitation on file names, the original name
- is truncated to make room for the .gz suffix. For example,
- 12345678901234 is renamed to 12345678901.gz. A file name such as foo.tgz
- is left intact.
- .SH "SEE ALSO"
- gzip(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zgrep(1), zdiff(1), gzexe(1)
