<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B>lzmainfo</B>
shows information stored in the
<B>.lzma</B>
file header.
It reads the first 13 bytes from the specified
<I>file</I>,
decodes the header, and prints it to standard output in human
readable format.
If no
<I>files</I>
are given or
<I>file</I>
is
<B>-</B>,
standard input is read.
<P>
Usually the most interesting information is
the uncompressed size and the dictionary size.
Uncompressed size can be shown only if
the file is in the non-streamed
<B>.lzma</B>
format variant.
The amount of memory required to decompress the file is
a few dozen kilobytes plus the dictionary size.
<P>
<B>lzmainfo</B>
is included in XZ Utils primarily for
backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.

An error occurred.

<A NAME="lbAF">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>BUGS</H2>
<B>lzmainfo</B>
uses
<B>MB</B>
while the correct suffix would be
<B>MiB</B>
(2^20 bytes).
This is to keep the output compatible with LZMA Utils.
