[comp.unix.misc] data-compression in a pipe

km11hs@sbuvax.rz.uni-sb.de (Dieter Becker) (06/25/91)

I am looking for a text-compression program, which works in a pipe
I want to use this in a shell-script like:
    tar cvf - xyz | "*compression*" | rcp xxxx
Do You know a PD-source / program? 
Thanks 
Dieter Becker
