+streams of data represented as lazy 'ByteString's.  It uses the zlib C library
+so it has high performance.  It supports the 'zlib', 'gzip' and 'raw'
+compression formats.  It provides a convenient high level API suitable for
+most tasks and for the few cases where more control is needed it provides
+access to the full zlib feature set.")
