NAME
       zck -- compress a file using the	zchunk format

SYNOPSIS
       zck   [-D   file	  |   --dict=file]   [-m   chunk   |   --manual=chunk]
	   [-o	file   |   --output=file]   [-s	  string   |   --split=string]
	   [-v | --verbose] file
       zck -? |	--help | --usage | --version

DESCRIPTION
       The  zck	 utility creates a new zchunk file from	the data in the	speci-
       fied input file.

       NOTE: If	no output file is specified using the -o option, the zck util-
       ity will	place the new file with	the  .zck  extension  in  the  current
       working	directory,  not	 in  the directory where the original file re-
       sides.

       The zck utility accepts the following optional arguments:

       -D, --dict
	       Set the zstd compression	dictionary to the specified file.

       -m, --manual
	       Do not do any automatic chunking	(implies -s).

       -o, --output
	       Output to the specified file.

       -s, --split
	       Split chunks at the beginning of	the specified string.

       -v, --verbose
	       Verbose operation; display some diagnostic output.

       -?, --help
	       Display program usage information and exit.

       --usage
	       Display brief program usage information and exit.

       --version
	       Display program version information and exit.

EXIT STATUS
       The zck utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an	error occurs.

EXAMPLES
       Create (in the current directory) a  zchunk-compressed  words.zck  file
       from a dictionary:

	     zck /usr/share/dict/words

       The same, but specify an	output file:

	     zck -o /tmp/words.txt.zck /usr/share/dict/words

       Generate	a zchunk file with chunks separated on HTML sections:

	     zck -s '<h2>' doc.html
