 A further unimportant bug was noticed:  When the program is used with
 a "-" arguement, it accepts standard input as the user's reply to
 the programs prompt for y/n confirmation, so, for example 
 
 $ echo yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss | compress yyy - >/tmp/y
 overwrite yyy.Z? compress: yyy: No such file or directory
 $ d /tmp/y
 32 -rw-r--r--  1 jojo  wheel  - 0 Sep  4 11:19:35 2005 /tmp/y
 
 instead of sending the compressed string to /tmp/y, as advertized.
