Linux gunzip command

Linux Command大全

The Linux gunzip command is used to decompress files.

gunzip is a widely used decompression program that is used to decompress files compressed with gzip. These compressed files are preset with the file extension .gz. In fact, gunzip is a hard link to gzip, so whether it is compression or decompression, it can be completed separately with the gzip command.
