Cleaner action to compress files?

[az0]

You can try this with BleachBit's command="process" and Microsoft's compact command. Does this help?

</cleaner>

However I have a few comments:
At the CleanerML documentation the process action is mentioned, however that it needs an cmd="" attribute is not. I found an example in the Windows Update cleaner otherwise I could not have done this.

What also would be nice to know is how the search options work with this action. How are the results passed to the cmd="" attribute? 😀

@az0 could the cmd="" thingy I mentioned above be added to the documentation? 🙃
