You can keep files around in a smaller size by compressing individual files using the gzip command. You can use the tar command to package up an entire directory into a single file, which can then be compressed.

To reverse the process and get thesis.ps back, use the gunzip command, like this: gunzip thesis.ps.

In general text files compress best since they repeat the same information over and over allowing the compression algorithm the greatest gains. Fortunately HTML and associated web site files fall into this category, so in general there are good gains to be had. Image files with JPG, GIF, PNG, etc. extensions are already compressed so there is no gain in compressing them again. Also MP3 audio and MPEG video files will not compress well for the same reason.

You can process as many files as you want at a time, as long as they are all in the same directory and are all grouped together. If there is a file in a directory you do not want to encrypt and compress for some reason, just process all the files that appear before it, and then process all files after it.

File formats like GIF and JPG are already compressed in their original form. That is why you cannot compress it much more using any archive utility.
