File::S...rs::gzip(3)

🌸 File::S...rs::gzip(3) ✨

okay so bestie, quick lil note before we dive in: this page comes to you courtesy of the User Contributed Perl Documentation 🫶 — folding that in right at the top so you know the vibe of where this came from 💅.

🎀 DEPRECATION PLAN 🎀

so here's the tea ☕ — there are so many libraries and utilities out there that just... generate gzip archives themselves 😭 like, they do it on their own, rather than delegating to one or two central libraries. and because it's that scattered everywhere, it is infeasible to get this upstreamed everywhere 💀 no cap, that's the whole situation fr fr.

like, the energy here is "too many places to touch, we can't round them all up" 🦋 periodt.

and that's a wrap, bestie 🎀 this page is served up by perl v5.42.3, dated 1980-01-01, and it's literally File::S...rs::gzip(3) the whole way through 💖 byeee ✨👑
