# find does't show pipes and shows the compressed size. Showing the
# uncompressed size would force find to open every file searched,
# which would harm performance
commands "find" use "find"
#zzsh, zls and zfind are links to sh, ls and find. They allow scripts
#to avoid running gzip on non-existant files. If we used find it would
#print the name of a compressed article as (say) 1234 instead of 1234.gz
#and gzip would complain no such file which would be harmless but
#inefficient. zzsh has to z to avoid confusion with the zsh shell

# backups, archive and copy programs don't use pipe decompression.
# This is because if these programs see fifos, they don't archive/copy
# their data but rather recreate a REAL fifo, thus losing the contents
# of the pipe.
# mv should not see pipes, else it refuses to move files accross filesystems.
# anyways, files get uncompressed when they are moved accross filesystems.
# cp -rf on a directory will work as expected, as it will see the compressed
# file names as it browses through the directories

# Unlike emacs, the following editors are too primitive to have their
# own compressed file mode. Fortunately, zlibc has now limited compressed
# write support :-)

# new files will always be created compressed.

# a backup or copy program other than those listed above. If you use only
# the backup programs listed above, you may safely change "generic_safe" into
# "generic". If you use different backup programs, you may add them to the
# list above and still change "generic_safe" into "generic". This default is
# there to prevent nasty surprises to people who use different backup progs, and
# don't read the doc.
