Thank you Brian. I had not quite grasped how the process works, now the
descriptions and
usage make sense.

As far as I can see read.maimages is built on top of R's own
file-reading facilties, and they all read compressed (but not zipped)
files as from R 2.10.0.
So simply use
gzip -9 coral55?.spot
and rename the files back to *.spot.
If you need more compression, use xz -9e. (You can also do this
The inst/doc directory of the DAAG package has 6 files coral551.spot, ... that
are around 0.85 MB each. It would be useful to be able to zip then, but that
as matters stand interferes with the use of the Sweave file that uses them to
demonstrate input of expression array data that is in the "spot"
