Anyone out there know of a program that runs in the background (TSR)
which automatically compresses/uncompresses files?  I am familiar with
a program called SQZ! which does this for Lotus worksheets, but am
looking for a more general-purpose program.  Evidently, it traps disk
accesses and compresses/uncompresses the data between the disk and the
program.

The ideal solution would be completely in software, but please let me
know about any hardware solutions also.  I'm not necessarily looking
for shareware (although it would be nice).

Please e-mail responses to me - I'll summarize to the net if there is
any interest.

Thanks,
Bryan Gonderinger (bgonderm@nmsu.edu)
