Package description for 'bzip2'

A file compression utility

 bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler blocksorting text
 compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally
 considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based
 compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of
 statistical compressors.
