NeoCL v1.1b has been released!

[Neo]

NeoCL v1.1 has been uploaded!
Now available from http://qbnz.com/harsoft/NeoCL.zip and http://qbnz.com/harsoft/NeoCL11.zip.

New features: LZW
Other features: fixed some lurking severe bugs (in the bit compressions... )

Compression ratios decreased with LZW! (especially on text-based files)

Please anyone, try this one out!

I misrepresented...

zlib is available from:
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
and does *not* use LZW.

It is the same alg used in the PNG format, and in PKZIP.

Cool. I'll take a look at it at maybe I'll implement it later on as well, if it's that good Also, please re-run the test with NeoCL v1.1, with LZW.

So you noticed it! I had the same problem doing the Huffman part of my Jpeg viewer.

BTW: There are some old (1995!) huffman and LZW QB sources at ABC, by Rich Geldreich, I think.

Thanks! Also, I didn't have problems with my Huffman, but mainly with converting the C++ BAC and VBC to QB It worked out eventually
I'll try to find the ABC packets with LZW and HUF...

*wonders wtf steath mode is*

Test results for compressed file size

Cool package of things! I'll use it as well to check out. Anyway, please re-run the test with the NeoCL v1.1 version, with LZW. I'd like to see the results with LZW in it
