  = Component Overview =
- 
  Compress is an API for working with tar, zip and bzip2 files.
  
- = External Resources =
+ = Quick Start =
+ *compress* is divided between Compressors and Archivers. 
  
-  ||Do you have a good example, add it here!||
+ == Archiver ==
+ To pack an archive, you have to get an archiver via the ArchiverFactory. At the moment it's possible to get a "zip" or a "tar" archiver. Add your files to the archiver and call save to store the archive.
+ 
+ === Packing a ZIP-File ===
+ 	Archive archiver = ArchiverFactory.getInstance("zip");
+ 		archiver.add(	new File("C:\\Temp\\1.html"));
+ 		archiver.add(	new File("C:\\Temp\\1.html.bz2"));
+ 		archiver.save(	new File("C:\\Temp\\ZIPTEST.zip"));
+ 
+ === Unpacking a ZIP-File ===
+ 	Archive archiver = ArchiverFactory.getInstance(
+ 				new File("C:\\Temp\\ZIPTEST.zip"));
+ 		archiver.unpack( new File("C:\\Temp\\unpacked\\"));
+ 
+ == Compressor ==
+ Same goes for Compressor. At the moment there is only "bz2" support.
+ 
+ === Compressing a file ===
+ 	Compressor compressor;
+ 	compressor = CompressorFactory.getInstance("bz2");
+ 	compressor.compressToHere( new File("C:\\Temp\\test.tar"));
+ 
+ === Decompressing a file ===
+ 	Compressor decompressor;
+ 	decompressor = CompressorFactory.getInstance("bz2");
+ 	decompressor.decompressTo( 	new File("C:\\Temp\\asf-logo-huge.tar.bz2"),
+ 					new File("C:\\Temp\\asf-logo-huge.tar"));
