Description : gzip-compressed file indexer
gztool indexes gzip-compressed files, allowing them to be accessed
randomly (instead of from the beginning). It can index existing
files, which takes as much time as decompressing the file entirely;
it can also compress and decompress files itself, creating optimised
indexes as it goes.
.
Other features include:
- watch and index a gzip-compressed file as it is created;
- partially extract a gzip-compressed file;
- tail a gzip-compressed file (including follow mode).
