 Environment
 ***********
 
    The environment variable `GZIP' can hold a set of default options for
 `gzip'.  These options are interpreted first and can be overwritten by
 explicit command line parameters.  For example:
 
      for sh:    GZIP="-8v --name"; export GZIP
      for csh:   setenv GZIP "-8v --name"
      for MSDOS: set GZIP=-8v --name
 
    On Vax/VMS, the name of the environment variable is `GZIP_OPT', to
 avoid a conflict with the symbol set for invocation of the program.
