# @(#)decompress_dat	17.1.1.1 (ESO-IPG) 01/25/02 17:31:39 
# This file contains a table of suffixes for compressed  files and the commands
# spawned by the "osd" interface to decompress them.
#
# The interface "osd" tries to read a file like this from the 
# environment $DECOMPRESS_TABLE, otherwise uses $MID_INCLUDE/decompress.dat,
# otherwise uses a built-in table. 
#
# NOTE: Please note that this file is called "decompress_dat" for the purpose 
#       of using the built-in table by default. If you want to use it as a 
#       template, copy it to $MID_INCLUDE/decompress.dat and edit it.
#       Please note that if the file $DECOMPRESS_TABLE or 
#       $MID_INCLUDE/decompress.dat exists the built-in table will be ignored.
#
#
# The syntax of this file must be followed strictly:
#  - Only '#' as the first character makes a line in comments.
#  - Separators are blanks or tabs.
#  - Suffixes are in the first column and without quotes.
#  - Commands are in the second column. Double quotes are required if the
#    command contains blanks.
#  - Commands can contain the character '*' that represents the file to be
#    decompressed, otherwise the filename is appended as an argument to the 
#    command. NOTE: only the first '*' is expanded.
#  - Any thing after the second column is ignored.
#  - Incomplete entries are ignored (i.g. only the suffix)
#  - Only the first MAX_TABLE_ENTRY (20) entries are read, the rest is ignored.
#  - If two entries has the same suffix, the second one will be always ignored.
# 
# Examples. Remove the char '#' in front of the preffix for a valid entry.
# The current built-in table is:
#.Z		zcat
#.z		"gunzip -c"
#
# Other valid examples:
#.z		"cat * | uncompress -c"
#.gz		"/usr/local/gnu/bin/gunzip -c"
