-a or-ascii Use ASCII text mode.

-c or-stdout or-to-stdout Output the compressed file to standard output devices without altering the original file.

Example zip file

[root root@runoob.com a]# ls //Show current directory file a.c b.h d.cpp [root@runoob.com a]# gzip * //All files in compressed directory [root@runoob.com a]# ls //Show current directory file a.c.gz b.h.gz d.cpp.gz [root@runoob.com a]#Follow example 1 and list detailed information

[root root@runoob.com a]# gzip -dv * //extract the file and list the details a.c. gz: 0.0% -- replaced with a.c b.h.gz: 0.0% -- replaced with b.h d.cpp.gz: 0.0% -- replaced with d.cpp [root@runoob.com a]#Following example 1, displaying compressed file information

[root@runoob.com a]# gzip -l * compressed uncompressed ratio uncompressed_name 24 0 0.0% a.c 24 0 0.0% b.h 26 0 0.0% d.cpp Thank you for reading!
