isz-tool is a command line utility to manipulate ISZ files (.isz), including .isz to .iso conversion

ISZ files (.isz) are compressed ISO files (also called ISO Zipped). They can be opened by software such as Alcohol 120%, Daemon Tools and UltraISO [1].

The main goal of this tool is to be able to convert ISZ files to ISO files. At the time of writing isz-tool, I couldn't find any program able to handle ISZ files under GNU/Linux.

ISZ files support the following features :

• Decompression (using zlib or bzip2)
• Split files support (.isz, .i01, .i02, ...)
• CRC checksums of both compressed an uncompressed data

ISZ tool is a small command line tool currently able to :

• Display informations about an ISZ file (uncompressed size, encryption type...)
• Verify the file checksum
• Extract the file to an .iso file

Currently not supported :

• Encryption
• Creation of an .isz file (before creating an .isz file, take into consideration that a .iso.bz2 is much more portable)

./isz-tool.py info file.isz Print general information about file.isz

./isz-tool.py verify file.isz Verify the CRC of file.isz

./isz-tool.py verify --slow file.isz Attempt to decompress and verify the CRC of file.isz

./isz-tool.py isz2iso file.isz file.iso Convert file.isz to an ISO file
