Title:          lzop -- a very fast file compressor similar to gzip
Version:        1.01
Entered-date:   2003-04-27
Description:    lzop is a file compressor similar to gzip. Its main advantages
                over gzip are much higher compression and decompression speed,
                at the cost of some compression ratio.
                lzop was designed with the following goals in mind:
                  - speed (both compression and decompression)
                  - reasonable drop-in compatibility to gzip
                  - portability
                lzop uses the LZO data compression library for compression
                services.
