Unzipping ".xz" file with 7z and lzma
- by neversaint
I tried to uncompressed a "*.xz" file with both 7z and lzma.
But they gave me such message:
$ 7z x J_12.fq.xz

p7zip Version 4.57 (locale=C,Utf16=off,HugeFiles=on,4 CPUs)
Processing archive: J_12.fq.xz
Error: Can not open file as archive
$ 7z x J_12.fq.xz

and with lzma
$ lzma -d J_12.fq.xz
