in thread Using PerlIO::gzip

Hi, thank you so much for your response.

The reason why I used PDF as an example was that I just wanted to create a GZIP file out of anything that wasn't a straight text or .dat file.

So if you could provide an example of creating a GZIP file without using a text file that would be greatly appreciated.

Brent.

    replace hi.txt with WHATEVER.WHATEVER or WHATEVER.pdf and there you go (mindblowing isn't it)
