Summary : NTFS-3G plugin for reading "system compressed" files
URL : https://github.com/ebiggers/ntfs-3g-system-compression
License : GPLv2+
Description : System compression, also known as "Compact OS", is a Windows feature that
: allows rarely modified files to be compressed using the XPRESS or LZX
: compression formats. It is not built directly into NTFS but rather is
: implemented using reparse points. This feature appeared in Windows 10 and it
: appears that many Windows 10 systems have been using it by default.
:
: This RPM contains a plugin which enables the NTFS-3G FUSE driver to
: transparently read from system-compressed files. Currently, only reading is
: supported. Compressing an existing file may be done by using the "compact"
: utility on Windows.
