Mscompress
reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv
coding (LZ77). Each input file is compressed to file
eding with underscore and original file remains untouched. Output files
then can be decompressed using Microsoft
EXPAND.EXE
utility or msexpand(1). In other words, mscompress(1) is binary compatible
with Microsoft's
COMPRESS.EXE
BUGS
Mscompress
cannot compress standard input as gzip(1) or compress(1) do.
