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 com‐
       patible with Microsoft's COMPRESS.EXE

BUGS
       Mscompress cannot compress standard input as gzip(1) or compress(1) do.
