NAME
       prezip, preunzip, precat -  prefix delta compressor for Aspell

SYNOPSIS
       precat [-dzhLV] [-cfksSq] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
       prezip  is  a  a  prefix delta compressor.  It is not a general purpose
       compressor and should only be used on sorted word lists or other  simi-
       lar text files.  It will likely increase the size of binary data.

       If invoked as prezip, the default action is to compress.  If invoked as
       preunzip, the default action is to decompress.  If invoked  as  precat,
       the default action is to decompress to stdout.

       If no file names are given then prezip will compress or decompress from
       the standard input to the standard output.  Short flags can be combined
       so that "-c -s" is the same as "-cs".
