--- About the client ---
This client lets XAD view and extract bzip2 (.bz2, .tbz2) files. bzip2 is
mainly used as a replacement for gzip in compressing UNIX tar archives,
because it beats gzip (which uses the LZH-like deflate algorithim) in
compression and is therefore useful for saving valuable bandwidth for Linux
distributions and the like.
