Quasijarus Strong Compression refers to a compressed file format associated with the Quasijarus Project and 4.3BSD-Quasijarus (a Unix operating system). Files can be created using that system's version of the compress utility, with the -s option.
The format is modeled after compress and Gzip. It can be converted to Gzip without decompressing it.
