zlib-flate: Uncompress a file.
$ zlib-flate -uncompress < ${path-to-compressed-zlib} > ${path-to-output_file}
try on your machine

The command "zlib-flate" is a utility used to compress and decompress data using the zlib format.

The "-uncompress" flag is used to specify that we want to decompress the data.

The "<" symbol is known as input redirection, and it is used to redirect the data from a file into the command.

"${path-to-compressed-zlib}" is a placeholder representing the actual path to the compressed zlib file. You need to replace it with the actual path.

The ">" symbol is known as output redirection, and it is used to redirect the output data from the command to a file.

"${path-to-output_file}" is a placeholder representing the actual path where you want to save the output file. You need to replace it with the actual path.

In summary, this command decompresses the data from a zlib file located at "${path-to-compressed-zlib}" and saves the decompressed data in a file located at "${path-to-output_file}".
