Shrink to half is normally only true for text. Almost all the data I transfer is some kind of binary data, and it doesn't compress nearly as well. The satellite data I transfer compresses somewhere between 0 % (SAR data) and 10-15% (optical). -Tor _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libssh2-devel
