zstd

Compress or decompress files with Zstandard compression. More information: https://github.com/facebook/zstd.

• Compress a file into a new file with the .zst suffix:
   
  zstd {{file}}
   
• Decompress a file:
   
  zstd -d {{file}}.zst
   
• Decompress to stdout:
   
  zstd -dc {{file}}.zst
   
• Compress a file specifying the compression level, where 1=fastest, 19=slowest and 3=default:
   
  zstd -{{level}} {{file}}
   
• Unlock higher compression levels (up to 22) using more memory (both for compression and decompression):
   
  zstd --ultra -{{level}} {{file}}
