Pack a MyISAM-table to take much less space.
Keys are not updated, you must run myisamchk -rq on the index (.MYI) file
afterwards to update the keys.
You should give the .MYI file as the filename argument.

Usage: /usr/bin/myisampack [OPTIONS] filename...
  -b, --backup        Make a backup of the table as table_name.OLD.
  --character-sets-dir=name
                      Directory where character sets are.
  -#, --debug[=name]  Output debug log. Often this is 'd:t:o,filename'.
  -f, --force         Force packing of table even if it gets bigger or if
                      tempfile exists.
  -j, --join=name     Join all given tables into 'new_table_name'. All tables
                      MUST have identical layouts.
  -?, --help          Display this help and exit.
  -s, --silent        Be more silent.
  -T, --tmpdir=name   Use temporary directory to store temporary table.
  -t, --test          Don't pack table, only test packing it.
  -v, --verbose       Write info about progress and packing result. Use many -v
                      for more verbosity!
  -V, --version       Output version information and exit.
  -w, --wait          Wait and retry if table is in use.
