     ZFORCE(1)		       UNIX System V		     ZFORCE(1)

     NAME
	  zforce - force a '.gz' extension on all gzip files

     SYNOPSIS
	  zforce [ name ...  ]

     DESCRIPTION
	  zforce forces a .gz extension on all gzip files so that gzip
	  will not compress them twice.	 This can be useful for files
	  with names truncated after a file transfer.  On systems with
	  a 14 char limitation on file names, the original name is
	  truncated to make room for the .gz suffix. For example,
	  12345678901234 is renamed to 12345678901.gz. A file name
	  such as foo.tgz is left intact.

     SEE ALSO
	  gzip(1), znew(1), zmore(1), zgrep(1), zdiff(1), gzexe(1)
