;;; Commentary:
;; This package can be used to arrange for automatic uncompress of
;; files packed with the UNIX compress(1) utility when they are visited.
;; All that's necessary is to load it. This can conveniently be done from
;; your .emacs file.
;;; Code:
;; When we are about to make a backup file,
;; uncompress the file we visited
;; so that making the backup can work properly.
;; This is used as a write-file-hook.
