# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| bzip2-compat32: bzip2-compat32 (a block-sorting file compressor) bzip2-compat32: bzip2-compat32: Bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text bzip2-compat32: compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally bzip2-compat32: considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78- bzip2-compat32: based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of bzip2-compat32: statistical compressors. This package contains 32-bit libraries. bzip2-compat32: bzip2-compat32: Julian Seward is the author of bzip2. bzip2-compat32: bzip2-compat32:
