Changes in version 1.3:
Changes in version 1.4:
Lzlib has been translated to C from the C++ source of lzlib 1.2. This
has been done to avoid the dependency on libstdc++, making lzlib useful
in more environments.
Multi-step trials have been implemented.
Quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU Coding
Standards.
Compression ratio has been slightly increased.
Configure option "--datadir" has been renamed to "--datarootdir" to
follow GNU Standards.
Compression time has been reduced by 8%.
Decompression time has been reduced by 7%.
Arguments and return values of functions in lzlib.h have been changed
from 'long long' to 'unsigned long long'.
The minimum size of the input compression buffer has been reduced to 64KiB.
"LZ_decompress_read" now tells "LZ_header_error" from "LZ_unexpected_eof"
the same way as lzip does when the EOF happens at the header.
The target "install-as-lzip" has been added to the Makefile.
The target "install-bin" has been added to the Makefile.
