what is the command line for compressing and uncompressing files?

Also are there any parameters?
 
I have found
compress

and that seems to work, but I don't know how to uncompress the files again

Compact is the command. Used with the /c switch to compress a file and the
/u switch to uncompress.

Type compact /? at the command prompt to see the available switches.
 
The compact command is used to compress NTFS files and drives. To use the
build in Zip functionality - COMPRESS and EXPAND should be used. The
resulting compressed files are compatible with other zip utilities.
