I have a few folders which are large enough, and accessed rarely enough that I keep them compressed. On the other hand, I access them frequently enough to consider the manual uncompress and re-compress to be a pain. Do others share my emotions? How hard should it be to have mush recognize file names ending with .Z in the folder directory to be compressed, zcat them into its temporary file, and re-compress when a save is issued to that folder? -- ran ----------------------------------------------- Reply-To: crehta@taux01.nsc.com (Ran Ever-Hadani) Disclaimer: The above is to be attributed to me only, not to any organization.
