1 1.1 tls DESCRIPTION 2 1.1 tls LZF is an extremely fast (not that much slower than a pure memcpy) 3 1.1 tls compression algorithm. It is ideal for applications where you want to 4 1.1 tls save *some* space but not at the cost of speed. It is ideal for 5 1.1 tls repetitive data as well. The module is self-contained and very small. 6 1.1 tls 7 1.1 tls It's written in ISO-C with no external dependencies other than what 8 1.1 tls C provides and can easily be #include'd into your code, no makefile 9 1.1 tls changes or library builds requires. 10 1.1 tls 11 1.1 tls A C implementation without external dependencies is available, too. 12 1.1 tls 13 1.1 tls I do not know for certain wether any patents in any countries apply 14 1.1 tls to this algorithm, but at the moment it is believed that it is free 15 1.1 tls from any patents. More importantly, it is also free to use in every 16 1.1 tls software package (see LICENSE). 17 1.1 tls 18 1.1 tls See the lzf.h file for details on how the functions in this 19 1.1 tls mini-library are to be used. 20 1.1 tls 21 1.1 tls NOTE: This package contains a very bare-bones command-line utility 22 1.1 tls which is neither optimized for speed nor for compression. This library 23 1.1 tls is really intented to be used inside larger programs. 24 1.1 tls 25 1.1 tls AUTHOR 26 1.1 tls This library was written by Marc Lehmann <schmorp (a] schmorp.de> (See also 27 1.1 tls http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/liblzf). 28 1.1 tls 29 1.1 tls 30
