Short: File compressor for 68k/PowerUp/WarpOS
Author: jseward@acm.org (Julian Seward)
Uploader: frank@phoenix.owl.de
Version: 0.9.5d
Type: util/arc
bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting text
compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally
considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-
based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of
statistical compressors.
The Amiga port was done with vbcc 0.7 for M68k (no FPU or 020+
required), WarpOS V4 and PowerUp (ppc.library V46). In any case you
need a stack size of 32k.
All features from the Unix-version, like pattern-matching, are
supported, but ixemul.library is *not* required. It's a complete Amiga
port.
The bz2 linker libraries are included (as AmigaDos/EHF lib-file and ELF
archive), for use in your own programs.
For further informations, please read the original Unix man-page
bzip2.txt and the manual (especially when using the linker libraries).
