    This is an example illustrating the use of the compress_stream and
    cmd_line_parser components from the dlib C++ Library.  

    This example implements a simple command line compression utility.


    The output from the program when the -h option is given is:

        Usage: compress_stream_ex (-c|-d|-l) --in input_file --out output_file
        Options:
          -c            Indicates that we want to compress a file. 
          -d            Indicates that we want to decompress a file. 
          --in <arg>    This option takes one argument which specifies the name of the 
                        file we want to compress/decompress. 
          --out <arg>   This option takes one argument which specifies the name of the 
                        output file. 

        Miscellaneous Options:
          -h            Display this help message. 
          -l <arg>      Set the compression level [1-3], 3 is max compression, default 
                        is 2.
