Summary: compressor for GNU sed

Initial Comment:
I didn't find any OS GNU usable compressor, so let me
propose my version of it using sed(1).
Upon request I can add (and probably will, when  will
start to use DynAPI) adding missing semicilons.

1. Public domain does not violate (L)GPL.
2. Even if (L)GPL violated, public domain just doesn't care.
   (Conversely doesn't applicable ;-)
3. No warranty of any kind: usability or even working, etc.
4. Finally. If it doesn't work at all, just drop it down.
I don't know about docs. Maybe in future, if somebody will
need them.
Test/development cases are for human checking, not automatic.

Usage is basic;
 input: file_name(s) as parameter(s) or standard input
 output: standard output
Bugs:
 comments inside strings, strings are in double quotes only,
spaces inside
  regex(7), any more are welcome.

Have fun !

Hmm, very interesting!  Have you got any doc on how to use,
and test cases?  I can and will take a look later this week.
 I know regexps a little (POSIX and Perl), and have used GNU
sed.  About your license, I don't know if public domain is
ok for the GPL or LGPL, because public domain doesn't
require modifications to be released as public domain.  The
API is LGPL.  But as this is a tool, maybe GPL is indicated.
