<para>Bzip2 is a compression program.</para>

<para>The bzip2 tdeioslave is not directly usable, and is intended for use
as a filter. For example, the tar tdeioslave can filter a file through
the bzip2 tdeioslave, in order to display the contents of a <literal
role="extension">tar.bz2</literal> file directly in a &konqueror;
window.</para>

<para>If you click on a file compressed with a <literal
role="extension">.bz2</literal> in &konqueror;, this tdeioslave is used to
uncompress it and display it as a normal (uncompressed) file.</para>

<para>Read the man page: <ulink url="man:/bzip2">bzip2</ulink>.
