\begin{funcdesc}{compress}{string\optional{, level}}
Compresses the data in \var{string}, returning a string contained
compressed data. \var{level} is an integer from \code{1} to \code{9}
controlling the level of compression; \code{1} is fastest and produces
the least compression, \code{9} is slowest and produces the most. The
default value is \code{6}. Raises the \exception{error}
exception if any error occurs.

\begin{funcdesc}{decompress}{string}
Decompresses the data in \var{string}, returning a string containing
the uncompressed data. Raises the \exception{error} exception if any
error occurs.
\begin{funcdesc}{decompress}{string\optional{, wbits\optional{, buffsize}}}
Decompresses the data in \var{string}, returning a string containing
the uncompressed data. The \var{wbits} parameter controls the size of
the window buffer. If \var{buffsize} is given, it is used as the
initial size of the output buffer. Raises the \exception{error}
exception if any error occurs.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{decompressobj}{\optional{wbits}}
Returns a compression object, to be used for decompressing data streams
that won't fit into memory at once. The \var{wbits} parameter
controls the size of the window buffer; usually this can be left
alone.
