Take 4 by IOPL (mail: iopl3@iname.com, surf: http://teekiah.home.ml.org/).

Implements a home-grown dictionary-based compression algorithm coupled with
compression of the character set (8 -> 6 bits). (The compressor/decompressor
is rather text-specific, but never mind.)

CHANGES
-------

Take 4 (565 bytes)
- Changed the number of bits used to code string distances from 12 to 11. It
  works! :)

Take 3 (575 bytes)
- Tweaked the decompression code a bit to make it smaller.

Take 2 (578 bytes)
- Added character set compression.

Take 1 (597 bytes)
- Initial version.

FILES

README		This file.

Makefile	The great makefile. Tested only with GNU make, but should work
		with any good make implementation. The default compiler (gcc)
		and switches can be overridden using command line parameters,
		e.g.

			make CC=tcc CFLAGS=

hc2-gen.c	The program generator. Tested only with gcc, but should work
		with any ANSI C compiler. Most of the compression code is
		cannibalized from my own HTML compressor
		(http://teekiah.home.ml.org/hr/cauldron.html#compress-html).

hc2.com		Final program, produced by running the makefile.

hc2-gen.exe	) Intermediate files.
hc2.asm		)

text.txt	The given input file: required by hc2-gen.
