Description: Home page of Jean-loup Gailly: data compression (gzip, zip, zlib, fractal compression, FAQ), game of Go, ...
I have written the compression code of the portable archiver zip of the Info- Zip group. zip and unzip are compatible with the pkzip archiver.
The zip compression code is used in the PGP encryption program.
In collaboration with Mark Adler , I have written the zlib , data compression library, which lets you compress or decompress data in memory or read and write files in the gzip format.
