.Sh DESCRIPTION
Fine tune deflate's internal compression parameters.
This should only be used
by someone who understands the algorithm
used by zlib's deflate
for searching for the best matching string,
and even then only by the most fanatic optimizer
trying to squeeze out the last compressed bit
for their specific input data.
Read the
.Pa deflate.c
source code for the meaning of the
.Fa max_lazy ,
.Fa good_length ,
.Fa nice_length ,
and
.Fa max_chain
parameters.
.
.Pp
.Fn deflateTune
can be called after
.Xr deflateInit 3
or
.Xr deflateInit2 3 .
.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn deflateTune

.Dv Z_OK
on success,
or

for an invalid deflate stream.
