NAME

minigzip [-cd] [file ...]

The minigzip utility is a minimal implementation of the
gzip(1) utility. It supports compression and decompression of individual
files, as well as streaming compression and decompression via standard input
and output.
The default operation is compression, decompression can be
selected by supplying the -d flag on the commandline.
If any file arguments are supplied, the operation is per
formed on each file separately. Compression replaces the original file
with one having a .gz suffix. Decompression will remove a .gz suffix if one
is present.
If no file arguments are supplied, minigzip reads from stan
dard input and writes the results of the operation to standard output.
If the -c option is specified, minigzip writes the results
to standard output and keep the original files unchanged.
