          _Z_c_m_p and _z_d_i_f_f are used to invoke the _c_m_p or the _d_i_f_f
          program on compressed files.  All options specified are
          passed directly to _c_m_p or _d_i_f_f.  If only 1 file is
          specified, then the files compared are _f_i_l_e_1 and an
          uncompressed _f_i_l_e_1.Z.  If two files are specified, then they
          are uncompressed (if ending with ".Z") and fed to _c_m_p or
          _d_i_f_f.  The exit status from _c_m_p or _d_i_f_f is preserved.
