NAME

       mscompress - compress data using LZ77 algorithm

SYNOPSIS

       mscompress [ -h ]
       mscompress [ -V ]
       mscompress [ name ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       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.
