What is wrong with "compress" option?
In finder, I can cntrl + click on a file and click "compress"... Sometimes. It seems that randomly the option just won't show up and I have to open a new finder window, or duplicate the folder first, or something ridiculous like that.
Is this a bug, or is compress only supposed to show up under certain circumstances?

It says that you can't compress certain folders like smart folders that are created in the 'All My Files' and 'Recents' box.
