.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.B lzmainfo
|
|
|
|
shows information stored in the
|
|
|
|
.B .lzma
|
|
|
|
file header. It reads the first 13 bytes from the specified
|
|
|
|
.IR file ,
|
|
|
|
decodes the header, and prints it to standard output in human
|
|
|
|
readable format. If no
|
|
|
|
.I files
|
|
|
|
are given or
|
|
|
|
.I file
|
|
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
.BR \- ,
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
.B .lzma
|
|
|
|
format variant. The amount of memory required to decompress the file is
|
|
|
|
a few dozen kilobytes plus the dictionary size.
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
.B lzmainfo
|
|
|
|
is included in XZ Utils primarily for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.

.SH BUGS
|
|
|
|
.B lzmainfo
|
|
|
|
uses
|
|
|
|
.B MB
|
|
|
|
while the correct suffix would be
|
|
|
|
.B MiB
|
|
|
|
(2^20 bytes).
|
|
|
|
This is to keep the output compatible with LZMA Utils.
