mscompress - compress data using LZ77 algorithm

Authors

       This program is written by Martin Hinner, <mhi@penguin.cz>
       Algorithm & data structures by M. Winterhoff <100326.2776@compuserve.com>

Bugs

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

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
