zstd: Decompress a file.
$ zstd -d ${filename}.zst
try on your machine
The command "zstd -d ${filename}.zst" is used to decompress a file that has been compressed using the Zstandard compression algorithm. Here's how it works:
- "zstd" is the command line tool used for compression and decompression using the Zstandard algorithm.
- "-d" is an option that instructs the "zstd" command to decompress the specified file.
- "${filename}.zst" is a placeholder representing the name of the file that needs to be decompressed. The ".zst" extension indicates that the file was compressed using Zstandard.
When you run this command, the "zstd" tool will locate the specified file, determine that it is compressed using Zstandard, and decompress it to restore its original form. The decompressed file will have the same name as the original file, but without the ".zst" extension.
