54 <p>
55 The
56 <i>compress</i>
57 utility, when the
58 <b>-d</b>
59 option is not specified, shall apply the compression algorithm identified
60 by the
61 <b>-g</b>
62 option or the
63 <b>-m</b>
64 <i>algo</i>
65 option to the named files to attempt to reduce their size without loss
66 of information. The compress utility with the
67 <b>-d</b>
68 option shall apply the appropriate decompression algorithm to the
69 named files to restore the data to their original state.
70 <p>
71 The
72 <i>uncompress</i>
73 utility shall be equivalent to
74 <i>compress</i>
75 <b>-d</b>.
76 The
77 <i>zcat</i>
78 utility shall be equivalent to
79 <i>compress</i>
80 <b>-c -d</b>.
81 If multiple
82 <i>file</i>
83 operands are specified, the decompressed data from each input file
84 shall be concatenated to standard output.
85 <p>
86 When compressing data, unless the
87 <b>-c</b>
88 option is specified, after an input file other than standard input has
89 been compressed, the compressed data from the input file shall be
90 stored in a file with the same pathname as the input file but with an
91 added suffix. The added suffix shall be the suffix associated with the
92 algorithm (see the algorithms in
93 <a href="#tagtcjh_17">
94 Compression algorithms, algo option-argument values, and suffixes
95 </a>
96 ).
97 If appending the suffix would make the size of the last component of
98 the output file's pathname exceed
99 {NAME_MAX}
100 bytes, the command shall fail. If appending the suffix would make the
101 size of the pathname exceed
102 {PATH_MAX}
103 bytes, the command may fail.
104 <p>
105 When decompressing data, unless the
106 <b>-c</b>
107 option is specified, after an input file other than standard input has
108 been decompressed, the decompressed data from the input file shall be
109 stored in a file with the same pathname as the input file but with the
110 suffix associated with the algorithm removed.
111 <sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('OB')">OB</a>]</sup>
112 <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]" border=0>
113 If
114 <i>file</i>
115 has no suffix associated with a known compression algorithm or
116 <i>file</i>
117 does not exist and does not have a
118 <b>.Z</b>
119 suffix,
120 <i>file</i>
121 shall be used as the name of the output file, and the default suffix
122 <b>.Z</b>
123 shall be appended to
124 <i>file</i>
125 to form the input pathname.
126 <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border=0>
127 The behavior is unspecified if the input pathname ends with a suffix
128 other than the suffix associated with the algorithm used to compress
129 the data. When the
130 <b>-c</b>
131 option is specified,
132 <i>file</i>
133 can have any suffix, or no suffix, and the utility shall use
134 <i>file</i>
135 as the input file and examine the file's contents to determine which
136 algorithm to use to decompress the data (it is not an error if
137 <i>file</i>
138 does not have a suffix that matches the suffix associated with the
139 compression algorithm).
140 <p>
141 When compressing or decompressing a file other than standard input and the
142 <b>-c</b>
143 option is not specified, if the invoking process has sufficient privilege,
144 the ownership, modes, access time, and modification time of the output
145 file shall match the ownership, modes, access time, and modification
146 time of the input file. After the output file has been successfully
147 created, the input file shall be removed if the invoking process has
148 sufficient privileges. If the invoking process does not have sufficient
149 privileges to remove the input file (for example, if the directory has
150 the S_ISVTX bit set) the behavior depends on whether the
151 <b>-f</b>
152 option is specified: if
153 <b>-f</b>
154 is not specified, the output file shall be removed, a diagnostic
155 message shall be written and the utility shall continue processing
156 other files but the final exit status shall be non-zero; if
157 <b>-f</b>
158 is specified, the output file shall not be removed and it is
159 unspecified whether the inability to remove the input file is treated
160 as an error. If it is not treated as an error, a warning message may
161 be written to standard error
162 <p>
163 If no
164 <i>file</i>
165 operands are specified, standard input shall be compressed or
166 decompressed to standard output.
167 <p>
168 <sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('OB')">OB</a>]</sup>
169 <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]" border=0>
170 If an input file that is to be removed after processing has multiple
171 hard links, the
172 <i>compress</i>
173 and
174 <i>uncompress</i>
175 utilities may write a diagnostic message to standard error and do
176 nothing with the file; this behavior may depend on whether the
177 <b>-f</b>
178 option is specified. If a diagnostic message is written, the final
179 exit status shall be non-zero.

473 <blockquote>
474 </blockquote><h4 class="mansect"><a name = "tag_20_23_16"></a>APPLICATION USAGE</h4><blockquote>
475 <p>
476 The amount of compression obtained depends on the size of the input,
477 the number of bits
478 per code, and the distribution of common substrings. Typically, text
479 such as source code or English is reduced by 50-60%. Compression is
480 generally much better than that achieved by Huffman coding
481 or adaptive Huffman coding (<i>compact</i>),
482 and takes less time to compute.
483 <p class="tent">
484 Although
485 <i>compress</i>
486 strictly follows the default actions upon receipt of a signal or when
487 an error occurs, some unexpected results may occur. In some
488 implementations it is likely that a partially compressed file is left
489 in place, alongside its uncompressed input file. Since the general
490 operation of
491 <i>compress</i>
492 is to delete the uncompressed file only after the
493 <b>.Z</b>
494 file has been successfully filled, an application should always
495 carefully check the exit status of
496 <i>compress</i>
497 before arbitrarily deleting files that have like-named neighbors with
498 <b>.Z</b>
499 suffixes.
500 <p class="tent">
501 In addition to trying
502 <i>file</i>
503 and
504 <i>file</i><b>.Z</b>
505 when looking for a file to decompress, some implementations of
506 <i>uncompress</i>
507 and
508 <i>zcat</i>
509 also try suffixes for other known compression algorithms if neither
510 <i>file</i>
511 nor
512 <i>file</i><b>.Z</b>
513 is found. This version of the standard allows, but does not require
514 this behavior. Portable applications should always specify the full
515 pathname (including the suffix) of files to be decompressed.

519 </blockquote><h4 class="mansect"><a name = "tag_20_23_18"></a>RATIONALE</h4><blockquote>
520 <p>
521 Earlier versions of this standard limited the number of bits used by
522 conforming applications for the
523 <b>lzw</b>
524 algorithm to 14 due to address space limitations on 16-bit
525 architectures. Using 15 or 16 is a much more common default when using
526 current hardware.
527 <p class="tent">
528 Earlier versions of this standard only supported LZW compression. The
529 standard developers noted that existing implementations added other
530 compression utilities, such as
531 <i>gzip</i>,
532 and found it desirable to support this widespread usage. Some
533 implementations had extended the
534 <i>compress</i>
535 utility to support such other schemes. The standard developers
536 generalized this practice by the addition of the
537 <b>-m</b>
538 option, even though this was not previous practice.
539 <p class="tent">
540 The
541 <i>uncompress</i>
542 <b>-d</b>
543 option is added to match undocumented existing practice of tested
544 implementations.

546 <p>
547 If this utility is directed to create a new directory entry that
548 contains any bytes that have the encoded value of a
549 <newline>
550 character, implementations are encouraged to treat this as an error.
551 A future version of this standard may require implementations to treat
552 this as an error.

554 When decompressing a file, the requirement to add
555 <b>.Z</b>
556 to a
557 <i>file</i>
558 operand if the given pathname does not include a suffix associated
559 with a known compression algorithm or if
560 <i>file</i>
561 does not exist and does not already have a
562 <b>.Z</b>
563 extension is an obsolescent feature and may be removed in a future version.
