LZVN

You can download the source code of LZVN and pre-compiled copies of libFastCompression.a and libFastCompression-Kernel.a with:

curl -o LZVN.zip https://codeload.github.com/Piker-Alpha/LZVN/zip/master

Unzip

You can unzip the downloaded archive with:

unzip -qu LZVN.zip [-d target directory]

Make instructions

make

Note: You don't need to run: make clean first because that is done automatically.

Installation

You can install the executable with:

make install

Note: The executable will be copied to: /usr/local/bin

Usage

./lzvn <uncompressed filename> <compressed filename>
./lzvn -d <compressed filename> <uncompressed filename>
./lzvn -d <path/prelinkedkernel> kernel
./lzvn -d <path/prelinkedkernel> dictionary
./lzvn -d <path/prelinkedkernel> kexts
./lzvn -d <path/prelinkedkernel> list

The kernel argument will extract the kernel from the given prelinkedkernel. The dictionary argument will extract the dictionary containing the Info.plist of all kexts. The kexts argument will extract all kexts to a ./kexts folder. The list argument will show a list of all the included kexts.
