Subject: Adding text to a compressed file without uncompressing
So lets say I have a few hundred lines of test I need at the beginning
or end of a big compressed text file. Say a 20GB uncompressed / 4GB
compressed JSON or XML doc. Now lets say I have no desire to
uncompressed this file and I have no desire to use interactive tools
like vim. How could I achieve this?
