COMMAND: NSQ DOCUMENTATION : None
FUNCTION: Compresses program files to take up less space.
FORMAT: NSQ [[d:] [d:]filename.ext]...
TYPE: Public domain software (Richard Greenlaw)
REMARKS: NSQ without any parameters displays a short summary of its proper
usage. The input file is squeezed using the Huffman algorithm
and is written to a file of the same name on the specified drive but
with the middle letter of the extension changed to 'Q'. If no drives
are specified, the default drive is used. If the output file already
exists, it is overwritten. Multiple input files and output drives
may be specified, in which case each output file is written to the
last specified drive. This is an improved version of earlier routines
that is somewhat faster. See NUSQ to un-squeeze the file.
