		-exec compress $OPTIONS {} \; >/dev/null

	My copy of compressdir does not have the '!' and works
	just as I expect it to.  The test after the first exec
	is testing to see if the file is readable, and has a
	size greater than 0.  If you put a '!' in, then things
	shouldn't work, because it will only try and compress
	files that either aren't readable, or have a size of 0.

	Did I misunderstand something?
