Bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of statistical compressors.
Our Review: Weeeeell, it's just a command line access program to compress and decompress BZ2 archives. For those that use BZ2 archives or WANT to use BZ2 archives then try using this. It's that simple.
