## GZipStream class

GZip compression stream.

Inherits from ZStream.

### Initialization

`static function create(parent: Stream): GZipStream
static function create(parent: Stream, flushable: Boolean): GZipStream
`
  Creates a new compression stream (writing compresses and reading decompresses). Optionally you can enable ability to flush data in the middle of the stream. The resulting compressed stream is then aligned to byte boundary on flushes.
`static function create_inverted(parent: Stream): GZipStream`
  Creates a new inverted compression stream (writing decompresses and reading compresses).
