Are you sure that this is the correct approach?
Wouldn't you be better off to download a copy of
the `compress' and `uncompress' programs for Windows
from the Simtel archives and make Win32 system calls
from your Ada program to execute uncompress
and leave the uncompressed data in a file
that you can open and read normally?
