Ever consider that this could have something to do with the fact that you're
running an alpha release?

Subject: Where is the COMPRESS() function?


Hi,

I was looking through the online manual, and on this page
(http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Miscellaneous_functions.html), there is a
function called COMPRESS():

COMPRESS(string_to_compress)
compresses a string
mysql> select length(compress(repeat("a",1000)));
+------------------------------------+
| length(compress(repeat("a",1000))) |
+------------------------------------+
|                                 21 |
+------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I just installed the 4.1 alpha, and that command throws an error. Is
this an error in the docs?
