EXAMPLES
       Here are a few examples of how you can use word-list-compress
       word-list-compress d <wordlist.cwl >wordlist.txt
              Decompress file wordlist.cwl to text file wordlist.txt
       word-list-compress c <wordlist.wl >wordlist.cwl 2>errors.txt
              Compress wordlist.wl to wordlist.cwl and send any error messages
              to a text file named errors.txt
       LC_COLLATE=C sort -u <wordlist.txt | word-list-compress c >wordlist.cwl
              Sort a word list, then pipe it to word-list-compress to create a
              compressed binary wordlist.cwl file.
       word-list-compress d <words.cwl | aspell create master ./words.rws
              Decompress a wordlist, then pipe it to  aspell(1)  to  create  a
              spelling  list.   Please  check  the  aspell(1)  info manual for
              proper usage and options.
TIPS
       Word-list-compress is best used with sorted word list type  files.   It
       is  not a general purpose compression program since the resulting files
       may actually increase in size.
       Word-list-compress accepts up to 255 text characters in  the  range  of
       {0x21...0xFF}.  If  your  word list requires a larger character set for
       certain languages or longer length for multi-word, scientific, medical,
       technical  or  other use, then it is recommended that you compress your
       word list using prezip-bin(1)
DIAGNOSTICS
       Word-list-compress normally exits with  a  return  code  of  0.  If  it
       encounters  an  error,  a  message  is  sent  to  standard error output
       (stderr), and word-list-compress exits with a  non-zero  return  value.
       Error messages are listed below:
       (display help/usage message)
              Unknown  command given on the command line so word-list-compress
              displays a usage message to standard error output.
       Corrupt Input
              This is only for the decompression command d.  The input file is
              of an unknown format or the input file/stream is corrupted.  You
              may have some valid output,  but  word-list-compress  could  not
              complete  the  process.   If  the  input  file  is  a compressed
              wordlist but you have no output file, then it  may  be  a  newer
              prezip-bin(1) version of compressed file, if so, try decompress-
              ing the file with prezip-bin(1) instead.
       Output Data Error
              The output is full, write protected, or has an error and can  no
              longer be written to.
