Is there a command line command that can tell whether or not mod deflate is running on Apache?

The mod_deflate module provides the DEFLATE output filter that allows output from your server to be compressed before being sent to the client over the network.
Some of that data – such as javascript files, css files, and php files – can actually be compressed into smaller sizes before they are delivered back to the visiting client or browser at the smaller size. The visitor can now have a more optimized browsing experience. This is where mod_deflate comes in.
It is probably to late, but here we go.
mod_deflate is enabled per default. To be sure, try
debian / ubuntu: apache2ctl -t -D DUMP_MODULES
CentOS: httpd -t -D DUMP_MODULES
and look if there is a deflate_module.
