How gunzip works
- Decompresses scalar file paths, string arrays, and cell arrays of gzip file paths.
- Supports HTTP and HTTPS gzip URLs through the shared RunMat HTTP transport.
- Writes decompressed files beside local inputs by default or under the supplied output folder, and returns a cell array of output paths.
Using gunzip with coding agents
Open a RunMat example with live inputs, then ask the agent to explain how gunzip changes the result.
Run a small gunzip example, explain the result, then change one input and compare the output.
