The
zforce
utility renames
gzip(1)
files to have a
'.gz'
suffix, so that
gzip(1)
will not compress them twice.
This can be useful if file names were truncated during a file transfer.
Files that have an existing
'.gz',
'-gz',
'_gz',
'.tgz'
or
'.taz'
suffix, or that have not been compressed by
gzip(1),
are ignored.
