pixz: Parallel Indexing XZ compression, fully compatible with XZ

Basic usage:
  pixz input output.pxz           # Compress a file in parallel
  pixz -d input.pxz output        # Decompress

Tarballs:
  pixz input.tar output.tpxz      # Compress and index a tarball
  pixz -d input.tpxz output.tar   # Decompress
  pixz -l input.tpxz              # List tarball contents very fast
  pixz -x path/to/file < input.tpxz | tar x  # Extract one file very fast
  tar -Ipixz -cf output.tpxz dir  # Make tar use pixz automatically

Input and output:
  pixz < input > output.pxz       # Same as `pixz input output.pxz`
  pixz -i input -o output.pxz     # Ditto
  pixz [-d] input                 # Automatically choose output filename

Other flags:
  -0, -1 ... -9      Set compression level, from fastest to strongest
  -p NUM             Use a maximum of NUM CPU-intensive threads
  -t                 Don't assume input is in tar format
  -k                 Keep original input (do not remove it)
  -c                 ignored
  -h                 Print this help
