See Squeeze#Disambiguation for other formats named "Squeeze".

squeeze is a data compression utility and format developed Daniel J. Bernstein. It uses Miller-Wegman encoding.

The files it creates have no signature, and can't easily be identified from their contents. The suggested filename suffix is an all-caps ".MW".

Notes

The macutil software's documentation says "The MW code for StuffIt is loosely based on code by Daniel H. [sic?] Bernstein."
