   (description
    "gzip (GNU zip) is a popular data compression program written by Jean-loup
Gailly for the GNU project.  Mark Adler wrote the decompression part.

We developed this program as a replacement for compress because of the Unisys
and IBM patents covering the LZW algorithm used by compress.  These patents
made it impossible for us to use compress, and we needed a replacement.  The
superior compression ratio of gzip is just a bonus.")

compression ratio.  XZ Utils were written for POSIX-like systems, but also
work on some not-so-POSIX systems.  XZ Utils are the successor to LZMA Utils.

The core of the XZ Utils compression code is based on LZMA SDK, but it has
been modified quite a lot to be suitable for XZ Utils.  The primary
compression algorithm is currently LZMA2, which is used inside the .xz
container format.  With typical files, XZ Utils create 30 % smaller output
than gzip and 15 % smaller output than bzip2.")
