<command>gzip</command> program.

<listitem>
<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>
<constant>FORCE_DEFLATE</constant> generates
RFC 1950 compliant output, consisting of a zlib header, the deflated
data, and an Adler checksum.
