Small detail about shell functions: the suggested function uses parenthesis as block delimiter, which causes the unnecessary creation of a subshell. Using curly braces: zlibd() { printf "\x1f\x8b\x08\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" | cat - "$@" | gzip -dc; }

inverse operation: cat input.txt | gzip -c | tail -c +9 >compressed.gzbody to remove the first 8 bytes

Explain how the technique works, i.e., that it prepends the magic number etc.
