sczip

To decompress files like the compressed xml eventfiles stored by scevtlog use sczip. sczip is a tiny (de)compressor that does not maintain a directory and file structure within the archive. It just (de)compresses a binary stream and writes it to stdout or a file.

Options

sczip supports commandline options as well as configuration files (sczip.cfg).

Commandline

-d, --decompress
Decompress the input stream. The default behaviour is compress.
-o, --ouput
Specify the output file. Default is stdout.

Configuration

No special configuration is supported by sczip except standard configuration options like logging.

Examples

Compress a file:

sczip dump.xml -o dump.xml.zip
sczip dump.xml > dump.xml.zip
cat dump.xml | sczip > dump.xml.zip

Decompress a file:

sczip -d dump.xml.zip -o dump.xml
sczip -d dump.xml.zip > dump.xml
cat dump.xml.zip | sczip -d > dump.xml
