Set compression level to @var{n} for the ZIP and ZLIB compression
algorithms. The default is to use the default compression level of zlib
(normally 6). @option{--bzip2-compress-level} sets the compression level
for the BZIP2 compression algorithm (defaulting to 6 as well). This is a
different option from @option{--compress-level} since BZIP2 uses a
significant amount of memory for each additional compression level.
@option{-z} sets both. A value of 0 for @var{n} disables compression.
A value of -1 forces compression using the default level.
Option @option{-z} sets both. A value of 0 for @var{n} disables
compression. A value of -1 forces compression using the default
level. Option @option{--no-compress} is identical to @option{-z0}.
Except for the @option{--store} command compression is always used
unless @command{gpg} detects that the input is already compressed. To
inhibit the use of compression use @option{-z0}; to force compression
use @option{-z-1} or option @option{z} with another compression level
than the default as indicated by -1. Note that this overriding of the
default deection works only with @option{z} and not with the long
variant of this option.
