NAME

geobzip2 − Run progress bar for bzip2 file decompression

SYNOPSIS

geobzip2 [compressedfile] [−Ifinalsize ] [ −D|U ] [−Ffullfile ] [ −V ]

DESCRIPTION

geobzip2 is a simple utility to display a progress bar (0-100%) of how the decompression of a compressed file is progressing. It is only useful in the context of distributing files when you know the decompressed file sizes in advance and you are giving an input file (for which we can find the size). If geobzip2 must read from standard input then no statistics can be reported.

OPTIONS

−D

Data file is in ascii DOS format (CR/LF) and needs to be converted to ascii Unix format (LF).

−I

Sets the known size of the fully expanded file (required for progress bar)

−U

Data file is in ascii Unix format (LF) and needs to be converted to ascii DOS format (CR/LF).

−V

Verbose oeration, prints progress bar if sizes are known as well as packing statistics.
