 Compression of executable programs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 With the addition of a single command to the link script file, Blinker is
 able to compress 16 bit Windows, DOS and DOS extended programs by 50% or
 more. The compressed executables can be distributed, stored and executed
 in this compressed form.

 Using Blinker to compress .EXE and .DLL files for the final link before
 distribution offers the benefit of minimising distribution costs, in the
 same way as traditional compression and archiving tools, but has the
 convenience and distinct advantage of not requiring an external
 decompression program at installation or run time. The fact that the
 program is compressed is completely transparent to the end user, and there
 is no degradation of runtime performance.

 Compression also minimises LAN, WAN and Internet traffic to optimise
 network performance, and protects software from decompilers.
