# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

zoo: zoo (archiving and compressing utility)
zoo:
zoo: Zoo is used to create and maintain collections of files in compressed
zoo: form. It uses a Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm that gives space
zoo: savings in the range of 20% to 80% depending on the type of file data.
zoo: Zoo can store and selectively extract multiple generations of the same
zoo: file. Data can be recovered from damaged archives by skipping the
zoo: damaged portion and locating undamaged data with the help of fiz(1).
