Stuart, why the aversion to writing the data to disk? Write the data to a type 19 file and then for each file execute the shell command "gzip FILE" This will cause gzip replace the original file with the compressed data FILE.gz. I think your shell example will work (and it would be my preffered option for thos you suggest) but my suggestion may be simpler to maintain.
