          Recursively decends each specified directory and compresses
          each file.  Each file is replaced by a file with the
          extension ....ZZZZ,,,, but only if the file got smaller.  If no
          directories are specified, the compression is applied to all
          files starting with the current directory.  Compressed files
          can be restored to their original form by running
          _u_n_c_o_m_p_r_e_s_s_d_i_r on the directories.

          The _f_l_a_g_s specified are passed to the compress(1) program.
