If Retrospect is an archiving utility for old and less frequently used
files then I would expect it to have some options for compressing these
files.  File searching is necessary for an archiver but it also needs to
save you some space or else it's not really that useful.  Does it have this?
No comment necessary if it violates non-disclosure.
