It makes size smaller: both index and data files are text files so |

compression is very effective. All distributions I've checked compress |
7 |
data files, some compress both data and index. Probably all desktop |
8 |
users want dictionaries to be compressed because modern cpu's are really |
9 |
fast in decompression and even on my 4-years old notebook it takes less |
10 |
then second... But still there are environments where it's better to |

keep dictionaries uncompressed. That's why I want to keep this feature |
