lrztar

Directory wrapper for lrzip

TLDR

Archive a directory with tar, then compress

$ lrztar [path/to/directory]

Same as above, with ZPAQ - extreme compression, but very slow

$ lrztar -z [path/to/directory]

Specify the output file

$ lrztar -o [path/to/file] [path/to/directory]

Override the number of processor threads to use

$ lrztar -p [8] [path/to/directory]

Force overwriting of existing files

$ lrztar -f [path/to/directory]
