compress -d

[C. S. Huang]

Hi,
	I am trying to decompress a file under interactive unix ver 2.2.1,
and get the following message.
	
	#compress -d r4lib.tar.tar.Z
	r4lib.tar:File too large

	and the file size are 1230573 bytes. I still have enough space in 
my harddisk. Any one have this kind of problem.
		Thanks in advance
