Short: Bzip 0.21 GNU blocking file compressor, 68030 exe + src Author: Julian Seward, sewardj@cs.man.ac.uk Uploader: hcm94rp2@dmu.ac.uk Version: 0.21 Type: util/arc Porter: Richard Perrott, hcm94rp2@dmu.ac.uk Date: 10 Feb 1997 Requires WB 2.0++. This is a new blocking file compressor (16 Aug 1996) which requires a lot of memory for the larger block sizes, but produces excellent compression ratios. It produces smaller files than lha, zip, lzx or even gzip. This archive contains the fully optimised executable for 68030 and corrected portable GNU source with a smakefile for SAS/C++ 6.57. All compiler settings are in SCOPTIONS so it is easy to customise. Note: no compiler errors and warnings need to be suppressed, unlike some other GNU porters, so it is less likely that you will have any nasty suprises. There is one warning generated for 'yy' by the optimiser but this is bogus, see the source for details. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 1480 833 43.7% 26-Aug-96 00:49:42 +ALGORITHMS 841 499 40.6% 04-Feb-97 07:07:14 +Build.info 37768 22177 41.2% 10-Feb-97 14:39:46 +bzip 10827 4755 56.0% 31-Aug-96 09:06:38 +bzip.1 92439 25202 72.7% 10-Feb-97 14:33:22 +bzip.c 486 273 43.8% 04-Feb-97 07:07:14 +bzip.c.info 835 390 53.2% 10-Feb-97 12:11:36 +bzip.info 12883 5158 59.9% 31-Aug-96 10:03:18 +bzip.txt 2632 1711 34.9% 04-Feb-97 07:07:14 +Debug 831 375 54.8% 04-Feb-97 07:07:16 +Debug.info 838 541 35.4% 04-Feb-97 07:07:16 +Edit.info 842 447 46.9% 04-Feb-97 07:07:16 +Find.info 17982 6993 61.1% 06-Jul-96 00:13:48 +LICENSE 599 258 56.9% 04-Feb-97 07:56:24 +Makefile 838 203 75.7% 04-Feb-97 07:07:14 +Makefile.info 13037 5647 56.6% 07-Sep-96 20:55:14 +README 722 460 36.2% 10-Feb-97 14:07:12 +README.AMIGA 838 316 62.2% 10-Feb-97 14:07:12 +README.AMIGA.info 749 422 43.6% 31-Aug-96 11:12:46 +README.DOS 31844 31844 0.0% 10-Jul-96 10:51:14 +sample1.bz 98696 41099 58.3% 08-Jul-96 13:37:50 +sample1.ref 72697 72697 0.0% 10-Jul-96 10:51:58 +sample2.bz 212340 93190 56.1% 08-Jul-96 13:37:30 +sample2.ref 186 132 29.0% 10-Feb-97 14:16:42 +SCOPTIONS 2954 452 84.6% 04-Feb-97 07:07:16 +SCoptions.info 966 438 54.6% 10-Feb-97 14:51:34 +smakefile 838 208 75.1% 04-Feb-97 07:42:30 +smakefile.info 239 121 49.3% 31-Aug-96 10:02:56 +test.bat 238 118 50.4% 31-Aug-96 10:03:08 +test.cmd 245 106 56.7% 20-Jul-96 11:02:32 +words0 104 88 15.3% 10-Jul-96 11:03:48 +words1 191 144 24.6% 09-Jul-96 00:00:56 +words2 693 417 39.8% 20-Jul-96 11:01:22 +words3 440 298 32.2% 31-Aug-96 10:03:40 +words3sh -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 620138 318012 48.7% 12-Feb-97 14:59:34 34 files
