To store the maps in compressed form (thus freeing up LOTS of disk space),
set COMPRESS=1 in uuhosts, then change the final lines in Rich's script to:

##  The path files.  First read local updates like u.BBN, then read the
##  domain files, then the raw map files.
P1="u.[A-Z]*"
P2="d.*"
P3="u.[a-z]*"

##  Print file name then file, so pathalias can report any errors correctly
(for i in ${P1} ${P2} ${P3}; do
	##  Handle both compressed and uncompressed (in case any maps
	##   were too small to be compressed efficiently)
	case $i in
	  *.Z)	echo "file {$i}"
		zcat $i ;;
	  *)	echo "file {$i}"
		cat $i ;;
	esac
	echo "private {}"
done) | pathalias -i -c ${DEBUG} ${DEAD} ${AVOID} |\
	awk '{ printf "%s\t%s\t%s\n", $2, $1, $3 }' >COSTS
awk '{ printf "%s\t%s\n", $1, $3 }' <COSTS >PATHS
