<para><command>gzip</command> is a compression program</para>
<para>The gzip kioslave is not directly usable, and is intended for use
as a filter. For example, the tar kioslave can filter a file through
the gzip kioslave, in order to display the contents of a <literal
role="extension">tar.gz</literal> file directly in a &konqueror;
window.</para>
<para>If you click on a file compressed with a <literal
role="extension">gz</literal> extension in &konqueror;, this kioslave is
used to uncompress it and display it as a normal (uncompressed)
file.</para>
<para>If you are a developer, and would like to use the gzip filter, you
can find documentation on using kioslaves at <ulink
url="http://techbase.kde.org">http://techbase.kde.org</ulink></para>
<para> See the manual: <ulink url="man:/gzip">gzip</ulink>.
