XZ Utils To-Do List
 | 
						|
===================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Known bugs
 | 
						|
----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    The test suite is too incomplete.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    If the memor usage limit is less than about 13 MiB, xz is unable to
 | 
						|
    automatically scale down the compression settings enough even though
 | 
						|
    it would be  possible by switching from BT2/BT3/BT4 match finder to
 | 
						|
    HC3/HC4.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Missing features
 | 
						|
----------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    "xz --list"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    xz could create sparse files when decompressing. (Some prototyping
 | 
						|
    has been done.)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    xz doesn't support copying extended attributes, access control
 | 
						|
    lists etc. from source to target file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Multithreaded compression
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Multithreaded decompression
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Buffer-to-buffer coding could use less RAM (especially when
 | 
						|
    decompressing LZMA1 or LZMA2).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    I/O library is not implemented. It will possibly be named libzzf.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Documentation
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Some tutorial is needed for liblzma. I have planned to write some
 | 
						|
    extremely well commented example programs, which would work as
 | 
						|
    a tutorial. I suppose the Doxygen tags are quite OK as a quick
 | 
						|
    reference once one is familiar with the liblzma API.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    Document the LZMA1 and LZMA2 algorithms.
