The following summary information is known about the "zlib" package.
| zlib |
| Compression Library |
|
ZLIB is designed to be a free, general-purpose, legally unencumbered
- that is, not covered by any patents - lossless data-compression
library for use on virtually any computer hardware and operating
system. The zlib data format is itself portable across platforms.
Unlike the LZW compression method used in Unix compress(1) and in
the GIF image format, the compression method currently used in
zlib essentially never expands the data. (LZW can double or triple
the file size in extreme cases). ZLIB's memory footprint is also
independent of the input data and can be reduced, if necessary, at
some cost in compression.
