So, from my reading, its seems as though that in 4.5, we got on the fly ADP
page compression. However, it seems as though there isn't comparable
functionality for Tcl files (i.e. ns_return). I know there are some work
arounds, but I was just curious why this was not implemented in the core? I
took a look at the sources, and it looks fairly straight forward to add this
functionality. I see there are three possibilities:
1) modify ns_return to take a flag. The optional connid parameter makes parsing
the args a little trickier.
Current:
ns_return ?connid? status type string (is connid ever used??)
New
ns_return ?connid? status type string ?gzip?
OR
ns_return ?connid? status type string ?-gzip boolean?
2) add a new command similar to the workarounds:
ns_returnz status type string
3) Expose Ns_ConnSetGzipFlag to the script level. This would be most similar to
how the ADP compression is done
Or, am I missing something here? Is there already a way to do this (without
workarounds)?
Thanks,

p.s. I'd really like on the fly compression for static files as well (yes, I
know there are work arounds).
