that the remote modem supports compression. If not,
a reliable connection is made without compression.
Although data compression is compatible with any
type of data, it is most efficient for ASCII text files.
For maximum throughput when using data compres-
sion, the terminal should be set to a higher speed than
the "true data link speed" with the constant speed
interface on and flow control enabled. When trans-
mitting or receiving data files in one direction, the
throughput can be increased for V.42 bis by having
extra buffer and more processor time with the &C2
and &C3 data compression commands.
