  Data Compression:

  The SIx Driver's compression functions provide an easy way to create and
  restore compressed data.  Any valid string data can be handled by these
  functions.

  Memory requirements are very minimal, Only 9k plus the size of the string
  is required to compress and decompress the data.

  The compression method utilized is a modified LZSS algorithm.  This algo-
  rithm provides for a good balance of speed and compression.  Typically,
  binary data, such as an .EXE file, is compressed to about 50% of its
  original size and text data is compressed to greater than 75%!
