PREZIP(1)                         Aspell Abbreviated User's Manual                         PREZIP(1)



NAME
       prezip, preunzip, precat -  prefix delta compressor for Aspell

SYNOPSIS
       precat [-dzhLV] [-cfksSq] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
       prezip  is  a  a  prefix delta compressor.  It is not a general purpose compressor and should
       only be used on sorted word lists or other similar text files.  It will likely  increase  the
       size of binary data.

       If invoked as prezip, the default action is to compress.  If invoked as preunzip, the default
       action is to decompress.  If invoked as precat, the default action is to decompress  to  std‐
       out.

       If no file names are given then prezip will compress or decompress from the standard input to
       the standard output.  Short flags can be combined so that "-c -s" is the same as "-cs".
