LZMAINFO(1) XZ Utils LZMAINFO(1)NAME
lzmainfo - show information stored in the .lzma file header
SYNOPSIS
lzmainfo [--help] [--version] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
lzmainfo shows information stored in the .lzma file header. It reads the first 13 bytes from the specified file, decodes the header, and
prints it to standard output in human readable format. If no files are given or file is -, standard input is read.
Usually the most interesting information is the uncompressed size and the dictionary size. Uncompressed size can be shown only if the file
is in the non-streamed .lzma format variant. The amount of memory required to decompress the file is a few dozen kilobytes plus the dic-
tionary size.
lzmainfo is included in XZ Utils primarily for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
EXIT STATUS
0 All is good.
1 An error occurred.
BUGS
lzmainfo uses MB while the correct suffix would be MiB (2^20 bytes). This is to keep the output compatible with LZMA Utils.

XZLESS(1) XZ Utils XZLESS(1)NAME
xzless, lzless - view xz or lzma compressed (text) files
SYNOPSIS
xzless [file...]
lzless [file...]
DESCRIPTION
xzless is a filter that displays text from compressed files to a terminal. It works on files compressed with xz(1) or lzma(1). If no
files are given, xzless reads from standard input.
xzless uses less(1) to present its output. Unlike xzmore, its choice of pager cannot be altered by setting an environment variable. Com-
mands are based on both more(1) and vi(1) and allow back and forth movement and searching. See the less(1) manual for more information.
The command named lzless is provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
ENVIRONMENT
LESSMETACHARS
A list of characters special to the shell. Set by xzless unless it is already set in the environment.
LESSOPEN
Set to a command line to invoke the xz(1) decompressor for preprocessing the input files to less(1).

Introduction
Originally, we only had one shell on unix. When ran a command, the shell would attempt to invoke one of the exec() system calls on it. It the command was an executable, the exec would succeed and the command would run. If the exec() failed, the shell would not give up, instead it... (3 Replies)

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()

The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)
