💖 ZRIO 💖

okay bestie, so this is the zrio page from the User Commands corner of the manual — section 1, as the girlies say. It's a maqview tool, and its whole vibe is making an index for a gz-file. No cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

zrio — maqview tool to make index for gz-file

literally that's the whole job. index. gz-file. iconic behaviour. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

zrio make <gz-file> [<index level>]

zrio use <gz-file> <offset>[<offlen>]

two modes, two moods. make builds the index, use reads through it. pick your fighter. 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

🧚 making the index

zrio make makes an index for a gz-file, and the index filename will be <gz-file>.idx — that's the original name with .idx glued on the end. slay.

heads up bestie: each level is increasing the time for search, whist decreasing the size of index. so it's a tradeoff, not a free lunch. choose wisely. 😭
  • level: default 1024, 1/1024 of source file
  • level: 512, 1/512 of source file
  • level: ...

(yeah the list literally goes on like that, the pattern is the pattern, iykyk 🌈)

🦋 using the index

zrio use uses the index <gz-file>.idx, and it spits out the exact content from offset (that's the source position) all the way to stdout. periodt. 🫶
