426b384f39SPeter Avalostypically takes a filename as an argument or reads standard input when used in a
43*085658deSDaniel Fojtpipe.
44*085658deSDaniel FojtIn both cases decompressed data it written to standard output.

466b384f39SPeter AvalosTo decompress a file:
476b384f39SPeter Avalos.Pp
486b384f39SPeter Avalos.Dl bsdcat example.txt.gz > example.txt
496b384f39SPeter Avalos.Pp
506b384f39SPeter AvalosTo decompress standard input in a pipe:
516b384f39SPeter Avalos.Pp
526b384f39SPeter Avalos.Dl cat example.txt.gz | bsdcat > example.txt
536b384f39SPeter Avalos.Pp
