- 4mgunzip24m can currently decompress files created by 4mgzip,24m 4mzip,24m 4mcompress,0m
- 4mcompress24m 4m-H24m or 4mpack.24m The detection of the input format is automatic.
- When using the first two formats, 4mgunzip24m checks a 32 bit CRC. For 4mpack,0m
- 4mgunzip24m checks the uncompressed length. The standard 4mcompress24m format was
- not designed to allow consistency checks. However 4mgunzip24m is sometimes
- able to detect a bad .Z file. If you get an error when uncompressing a
- .Z file, do not assume that the .Z file is correct simply because the
- standard 4muncompress24m does not complain. This generally means that the
- standard 4muncompress24m does not check its input, and happily generates
- garbage output. The SCO compress -H format (lzh compression method)
- does not include a CRC but also allows some consistency checks.
