Notice that using "tar" is an extra step that is not necessary when compressing a single file, and complicates reading at the other end.
Simply use "gzip strace.txt" which will convert the file to "strace.txt.gz". The file can be read directly with commands like "less strace.txt.gz".
Thank you for that insight.
