Subject: 24.3.50; Add support for .txz suffix, XZ-compressed tar archives
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:55:06 +0100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The .txz suffix has recently become somewhat popular. For example,
Slackware GNU/Linux and FreeBSD are using it.

Attached patch adds support for .txz to jka-compr. (In other places,
like dired-x, .txz is already recognised). It would be nice if this
could be added to the trunk.

	* jka-cmpr-hook.el (jka-compr-compression-info-list)
	(jka-compr-mode-alist-additions): Handle .txz suffix for
	XZ-compressed tar archives.

Here's the ChangeLog entry again; hopefully this time it won't get
mangled by the mailer.
