unix gzexe

gzexe is a Unix command that compresses executable files in the gz file format. It is used to reduce the size of executable files without affecting their functionality. When a gzexe file is executed, it is automatically decompressed into a temporary file, which is then executed. This helps to save disk space and reduce transfer times when downloading or distributing executable files. The gzexe command is typically used in conjunction with other Unix compression utilities, such as gzip and tar, to compress and archive files
