lrunzip: Decompress a file and silently overwrite files if they exist.

lrunzip

$ lrunzip -f ${filename-lrz}

try on your machine

The command "lrunzip -f ${filename-lrz}" is used to extract the contents of a file compressed using the LRZ algorithm.

Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:

"lrunzip": This is the name of the command, which stands for "List Oracle form Run-time UNZIP". It is a utility provided by Oracle Forms Runtime, specifically used for extracting compressed files.
"-f": This is an option or flag that is used with the "lrunzip" command. In this case, it stands for "force". When used, it forcefully extracts the contents of the specified file, even if it already exists in the current directory.
"${filename-lrz}": This is a placeholder or variable that represents the name of the file you want to extract. The "-lrz" extension indicates that the file is compressed using the LRZ algorithm. The actual file name can be substituted in place of "${filename-lrz}".

So, when you run the command, it will extract the contents of the specified LRZ-compressed file. The extracted files will be placed in the current working directory or the directory specified in the command.
