  • Archive a directory with `tar`, then compress:
    lrztar path/to/directory
  • Same as above, with ZPAQ - extreme compression, but very slow:
    lrztar -z path/to/directory
  • Specify the output file:
    lrztar -o path/to/file path/to/directory
  • Override the number of processor threads to use:
    lrztar -p 8 path/to/directory
  • Force overwriting of existing files:
    lrztar -f path/to/directory
