   <command>gzip</command> program.

      <para>
       The level of compression. Can be given as 0 for no compression up to 9
       for maximum compression. If not given, the default compression level will
       be the default compression level of the zlib library.

      </para>
      <para>
       If you use <constant>FORCE_DEFLATE</constant>, you get a standard zlib
       deflated string (inclusive zlib headers) after the gzip file header but
       without the trailing crc32 checksum.
