This is a tiny Go package that wraps HTTP handlers to transparently gzip the response body, for clients which support it. Although it's usually simpler to leave that to a reverse proxy (like nginx or Varnish), this package is useful when that's undesirable. Call GzipHandler with any handler (an object which implements the http.Handler interface), and it'll return a new handler which gzips the response.
