I would like to be able to store the files in a compressed form. Does anyone know of an XCMD or XFNC that can compress/uncompress a file on the fly or an XFNC that can do this to a variable. I have looked in a number of places and have had no luck. Please, reply directly to one of the accounts listed below.
