KanziSFX is a minimal Kanzi decompressor to decompress an embedded Kanzi bit stream, with built-in support to also untar a compressed tar archive. So, the embedded Kanzi bit stream could contain either a single file of arbitrary type or a tar archive which will be both decompressed and unarchived.
Usage: kanzisfx [options...]
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
-knz |
Output Kanzi bit stream |
-o <file|directory> |
Destination file or directory |
-info |
Show Kanzi bit stream info |
- can be used in place of <file> to designate standard output as the destination, but cannot be used in place of a directory for extracting tar archives.
Without any arguments, the embedded Kanzi stream will be decompressed into the working directory to a file of the same name as the executable, except with the .exe or .app extension removed. Or, if the Kanzi stream contains a tar archive, the tar archive will be both decompressed and unarchived into a folder within the working directory of the same name as the executable, except with the .exe or .app extension removed. So, command-line usage is only optional and the end user can just execute the application as they would any other application for this default behavior.
