# The archivers/xz port

## xz-5.8.3 – library and tools for XZ and LZMA compressed files

## Description

    XZ Utils provide a general purpose data compression library and
    command line tools. The native file format is the .xz format, but
    also the legacy .lzma format is supported. The .xz format supports
    multiple compression algorithms, of which LZMA2 is currently the
    primary algorithm. With typical files, XZ Utils create about 30 %
    smaller files than gzip.
