Description: Original Compress / Uncompress for News Transfers etc.
Compress is a fast, simple LZW file compressor. Compress does not have
the highest compression rate, but it is one of the fastest programs to
compress data. Compress is the defacto standard in the UNIX community
for compressing files.
gunzip will uncompress .Z files as well.
:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
