Er, thanks for the suggestion; but..
Unfortunately, it comes with no man/info page. If I try its --help
option, it shows me the help output for gzip (eh? O_o).
In amusing twist of irony, Google is not helpful either. (It gives me
results for the C. difficile toxin which is apparently a sign of very
bad gastrointestinal happenings...)
Where would I find appropriate documentation for this tool? I know I'm
missing something somewhere but it's 3:36 AM right now and my brain's
not entirely efficient. T_T
Thanks again!
