#zcat

Version 0.1.0 is a local candidate. The support record distinguishes workspace checks from published MoonX behavior; the examples become available after publication.

Write the decoded contents of gzip files to stdout, keeping the input files:

moonx cli/zcat first.gz second.gz
cat first.gz | moonx cli/zcat

With no file or with -, read stdin. Operands are processed in order. -c and -d explicitly select the default stdout/decompression behavior; -t validates without output. -n is accepted because stdout output never restores metadata.

Concatenated members, optional header fields and CRC/size checks follow the same gzip behavior as gunzip. Compressed input is buffered and decoded bytes are written in chunks. Invalid or truncated data returns 1, preserving any decoded prefix; trailing garbage returns 2. -q suppresses trailing-garbage warnings, and --help/--version provide command information.

Only gzip input is accepted. Other compression formats, filename suffix searching, force/pass-through behavior and metadata restoration are not supported.
