ZFORCE(1) General Commands Manual ZFORCE(1) NAME zforce - force gzip files to have a .gz suffix SYNOPSIS zforce file ... DESCRIPTION The zforce utility renames gzip(1) files to have a `.gz' suffix, so that gzip(1) will not compress them twice. This can be useful if file names were truncated during a file transfer. Files that have an existing `.gz', `-gz', `_gz', `.tgz' or `.taz' suffix, or that have not been compressed by gzip(1), are ignored. SEE ALSO gzip(1) CAVEATS zforce overwrites existing files without warning. NetBSD 10.99 July 29, 2003 NetBSD 10.99
