I have several pdf files as .pdf.bz2, as seen here:
a/1.pdf.bz2 a/2.pdf.bz2 a/b/3.pdf.bz2 a/b/c/4.pdf.bz2
I want to copy everything in and under directory a to another computer, but I want the files to be decompressed on the destination machine:
a/1.pdf a/2.pdf a/b/3.pdf a/b/c/4.pdf
I could just use rsync and run a bunch of bunzip2 commands on the destination after the copying is completed, but perhaps there's a better way that would decompress the files in transit instead?
