- The LZSS program implements a turbo pascal wrapper I've placed around a
- very nice (and fast) implementation of the LZ77 algorithm submitted to the
- DR DOBBS compression contest a few years back by Andy Tam.
-
- The algorithm is implemented in the context of a stand-alone file
- compression utility, which can be used to compress/decompress files
- one at a time.
-
- It should be noted that the plain LZ77 algorithm is unpatented, so using
- this code in a commercial application should be OK.
