NAME
   Alien::Win32::LZMA - Install and make available lzma.exe

DESCRIPTION
   On Windows (unlike on Unix systems) the primary mechanism for accessing
   LZMA functionality is via the 7-Zip desktop application.

   Alien::Win32::LZMA is a simple Alien module which embeds a copy of the
   lzma.exe command line utility for use in situations where the
   memory-only compression and decompression provided by the current
   generation of modules is not sufficient.

   The version of lzma.exe provided by this module is taken from the LZMA
   SDK 4.65 at <http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sevenzip/lzma465.tar.bz2>.

FUNCTIONS
 lzma_exe
   The "lzma_exe" function returns the location of the installed lzma.exe
   command line application as a string.

 lzma_version
   The "lzma_version" function runs lzma.exe and finds the version of the
   application. It should match the version of this module.

 lzma_compress
     lzma_compress('file', 'file.lz') or die('Failed to compress');

   The "lzma_compress" function invokes lzma.exe to compress one file into
   another file.

   Any additional params to "lzma_compress" will be passed through to the
   underlying command line call as options.

   Returns true if the invocation returns without error.

 lzma_decompress
     lzma_decompress('file','file.lz') or die('Failed to decompress');

   The "lzma_decompress" function invokes lzma.exe to decompress an LZMA
   file into another file.

   Any additional params to "lzma_compress" will be passed through to the
   underlying command line call as options.

   Returns true if the invocation returns without error.
