Short: Recover data from a corrupted gzip file Author: Aaron M. Renn Uploader: aGGreSSor/CPU (amitrans narod ru) Type: util/arc Version: 0.5 Requires: ABIv0; i386; InstallerLG Architecture: i386-aros Distribution: aminet ============================== F E A T U R E S ============================== gzrecover is a program that will attempt to extract any readable data out of a gzip file that has been corrupted. ============================ R E Q U I R E M E N T ========================== gzrecover tested and worked fine on the following configurations: - IcarOS i386 (Kickstart 51.51, Workbench 40.0, AROS ABIv0) - AROS One i386 (Kickstart 51.51, Workbench 40.0, AROS ABIv0) ================================= U S A G E ================================= USAGE: gzrecover [ -hsv ] [-o ] By default, gzrecover writes its output to .recovered. If the original filename ended in .gz, that extension is removed. Options include: -o - Sets the output file name -s - Splits each recovered segment into its own file, with numeric suffixes (.1, .2, etc) (UNTESTED) -h - Print the help message -v - Verbose logging on Running gzrecover on an uncorrupted gzip file should simply uncompress it. However, substituting gzrecover for gzip on a regular basis is not recommended. Any recovered data should be manually verified for validity. ================================ S O U R C E ================================ This code is licensed under the same GNU General Public License v2 (or at your option, any later version) at GNU tar.
