Alin Vasile commented on HTTPCLIENT-1063:
-----------------------------------------

Compress and x-compress seems to use LZA - a variant of LZW. I tested some 
implementation in java found on internet 
(http://www.aprogrammersblog.co.uk/tutorials/java-uncompressing-z-unix-compress-files/)
 with the latest version of http-client and it decodes correctly  a .Z file 
archived in solaris with 'compress' and put on an httpd server on windows. Not 
sure how licensed is that code so you can use it.

> ResponseContentEncoding should also handle x-gzip, compress and x-compress
