compression in Sco Unix tar

[Robert den Hartog]

How does one drive the compression in the new Sco Unix tar?  strings tell's
me that it's there (references to compress and /usr/bin/compress) but the
manual pages don't mention compression at all.
I've tried a number of options but never managed to get it to compress anything
for me.
