 \fBzstd\fR command line is generally similar to gzip, but features the following differences :
- - Original files are preserved
+ - Source files are preserved by default
+   It's possible to remove them automatically by using \fB--rm\fR command
  - By default, when compressing a single file, \fBzstd\fR displays progress notifications and result summary.
