Well...I *am* working on a better technique for 16-bit computers and most of my
ideas *should* work on 8-bitters.  However, the technique is going to be
classified for a while, and I'm looking for a *fast* and freeware approach for
a special document-
handling project.  This way, I can store more on a single disk.  For this
project, speed is more important than compression ratio.
