NAME
xzcmp, xzdiff, lzcmp, lzdiff - compare compressed files
SYNOPSIS
xzcmp [cmp_options] file1 [file2
xzdiff [diff_options] file1 [file2
lzcmp [cmp_options] file1 [file2
lzdiff [diff_options] file1 [file2
DESCRIPTION
xzcmp and xzdiff invoke cmp(1) or diff(1) on files com-
pressed with xz(1), lzma(1), gzip(1), or bzip2(1). All
options specified are passed directly to cmp(1) or diff(1).
If only one file is specified, then the files compared are
file1 (which must have a suffix of a supported compression
format) and file1 from which the compression format suffix
has been stripped. If two files are specified, then they
are uncompressed if necessary and fed to cmp(1) or diff(1).
The exit status from cmp(1) or diff(1) is preserved.
The names lzcmp and lzdiff are provided for backward compat-
ibility with LZMA Utils.
