zforce - force a ’.gz’ extension on all gzip files
zforce [ name
... ]
zforce forces a .gz extension on all gzip files so that gzip
will not compress them twice. This can be useful for files with names truncated
after a file transfer. On systems with a 14 char limitation on file names,
the original name is truncated to make room for the .gz suffix. For example,
12345678901234 is renamed to 12345678901.gz. A file name such as foo.tgz is
left intact.
