[Boost-users] [zlib] Compression intended use

Hello, This is probably out of scope with boost's intended usage pattern, but I'll ask anyhow. I've got a package of output files that I want to bundle, tarball, gzip, or however I can manage to compress them. I see there is the zlib usage, but methinks that is more for in-memory compression. Not sure exactly how that translates to folders-/files-oriented compression I am thinking of. Thank you... Regards, Michael Powell
