# Formats for various forms of compressed data
# Formats for "compress" proper have been moved into "compress.c",
# because it tries to uncompress it to figure out what's inside.

# Squeeze and Crunch...
# These numbers were gleaned from the Unix versions of the programs to
# handle these formats. Note that I can only uncrunch, not crunch, and
# I didn't have a crunched file handy, so the crunch number is untested.
