About:
The zisofs filesystem is an extension to the ISO9660 filesystem that allows files, on a file-by-file basis, to be stored compressed and decompressed in real time. The zisofs filesystem is supported by recent versions of Linux (2.4.14 or later). Legacy systems can still read uncompressed files. zisofs-tools contains the tools necessary to create such a compressed ISO9660 filesystem and to read compressed files on a legacy system.

[»] read from stdin
by Tomas - Dec 8th 2003 03:26:58

It could be great if mkzftree could read a file
(with -F) from stdin. Then I could use pipe like
this:

mkisofs "/tmp/isofiles" | mkzftree -F -
result.iso

It tries to open "-" as a real file instead of
replacing it by stdin.

% mkisofs "/tmp/isofiles" |
> mkzftree -F -
> result.iso

Doesn't really work... mkzftree is run before mkisofs, not after...

Tried to pipe from mkzftree to mkisofs without success. Could not find a hint in the manpage and the web how to to that if it is possible at all...
