Well I'm by far no expert but google is your best friend and using google I found this
Code
rem Pick up each file in C:\Temp1\ with .out extension.
for %%a in ("C:\temp1\*.out") do (
rem Compress the file to a file with the same name but .gz extension is added.
gzip -c %%a > %%a.gz
rem Delete the .out file which has been already compressed.
del /F /Q %%a
)Legit 2 seconds after this I saw you wanted bash not batch so i can't really help in that sense since I'm a noob when it comes to bash but found something that might help here
