I really suggest you read http://jdclayton.com/blueprints_compress_a_walkthrough.html. It sounds like you're not using the settings.yml file correctly, which is why you're not getting your expected result. The settings.yml file should go in the lib directory just like the settings example yaml file.
The error you're getting is because the yaml file isn't formatted properly. My walkthrough has a link to the YAML spec... it sounds like you should read that as well before continuing. Good luck.
