You can use compress or gzip to compress a file. compress -v [filename] should compress the file and tell you the percentage as well. Gzip is a GNU utility that may be on your system. These utilities may not be in your current path.

Hello, list:
We have a unix nightly job which will send an email to a user. However, the file size is very large, so we need to zip the file before we send it out. Does anyone know the syntax or command of zipping a file from UNIX ?
