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

Yes, compress can do that. Compress can be found on the net, in fact
compress 4.1 was just posted to alt.sources a couple of days ago. If
you need me to send it to you just let me know.
tar cvf - xyz | compress - | rcp xxx
will work
