-Source of Algorithm
--------------------
-
-The compression algorithms used here are based upon the algorithms developed and published by Haruhiko Okumura in a paper entitled "Data Compression Algorithms of LARC and LHarc." This paper discusses three compression algorithms, LSZZ, LZARI, and LZHUF. LZSS is described as the "first" of these, and is described as providing moderate compression with good speed. LZARI is described as an improved LZSS, a combination of the LZSS algorithm with adaptive arithmetic compression. It is described as being slower than LZSS but with better compression. LZHUF (the basis of the common LHA compression program) was included in the paper, however, a free usage license was not included.
-
-The following are copies of the statements included at the beginning of each source code listing that was supplied in the working paper.
-
- LZSS, dated 4/6/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
- modify this program freely."
-
- LZARI, dated 4/7/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
- modify this program freely."
-
- LZHUF, dated 11/20/88, written by Haruyasu Yoshizaki,
- translated by Haruhiko Okumura on 4/7/89. Not
- expressly marked as redistributable or modifiable.
-
-Since both LZSS and LZARI are marked as "use, distribute and modify freely" we have felt at liberty basing our compression algorithm on either of these.
-
-Selection of Algorithm
-----------------------
-
-Working samples of three possible compression algorithms are supplied in Okumura's paper. Which should be used?
-
-LZSS is the fastest at decompression, but does not generated as small a compressed file as the other methods. The other two methods provided, perhaps, a 15% improvement in compression. Or, put another way, on a 100K file, LZSS might compress it to 50K while the others might approach 40-45K. For STEP purposes, it was decided that decoding speed was of more importance than tighter compression. For these reasons, the first compression algorithm implemented is the LZSS algorithm.
-
-About LZSS Encoding
--------------------
-
-(adapted from Haruhiko Okumura's paper)
-
-This scheme was proposed by Ziv and Lempel [1]. A slightly modified version is described by Storer and Szymanski [2]. An implementation using a binary tree has been proposed by Bell [3].
-
-The algorithm is quite simple.
-1. Keep a ring buffer which initially contains all space characters.
-2. Read several letters from the file to the buffer.
-3. Search the buffer for the longest string that matches the letters just read, and send its length and position into the buffer.
-
-If the ring buffer is 4096 bytes, the position can be stored in 12 bits. If the length is represented in 4 bits, the <position, length> pair is two bytes long. If the longest match is no more than two characters, then just one character is sent without encoding. The process starts again with the next character. An extra bit is sent each time to tell the decoder whether the next item is a character of a <position, length> pair.

-
-// The following are constant sizes used by the compression algorithm.
-//
-// N - This is the size of the ring buffer. It is set
-// to 4K. It is important to note that a position
-// within the ring buffer requires 12 bits.
-//
-// F - This is the maximum length of a character sequence
-// that can be taken from the ring buffer. It is set
-// to 18. Note that a length must be 3 before it is
-// worthwhile to store a position/length pair, so the
-// length can be encoded in only 4 bits. Or, put yet
-// another way, it is not necessary to encode a length
-// of 0-18, it is necessary to encode a length of
-// 3-18, which requires 4 bits.
-//
-// THRESHOLD - It takes 2 bytes to store an offset and
-// a length. If a character sequence only
-// requires 1 or 2 characters to store
-// uncompressed, then it is better to store
-// it uncompressed than as an offset into
-// the ring buffer.
-//
-// Note that the 12 bits used to store the position and the 4 bits
-// used to store the length equal a total of 16 bits, or 2 bytes.

-// m_ring_buffer is a text buffer. It contains "nodes" of
-// uncompressed text that can be indexed by position. That is,
-// a substring of the ring buffer can be indexed by a position
-// and a length. When decoding, the compressed text may contain
-// a position in the ring buffer and a count of the number of
-// bytes from the ring buffer that are to be moved into the
-// uncompressed buffer.
-//
-// This ring buffer is not maintained as part of the compressed
-// text. Instead, it is reconstructed dynamically. That is,
-// it starts out empty and gets built as the text is decompressed.

-// to facilitate string comparison.

-//
-// These nodes store values of 0...(N-1). Memory requirements
-// can be reduces by using 2-byte integers instead of full 4-byte
-// integers (for 32-bit applications). Therefore, these are

+Source of Algorithm
+-------------------
+
+The compression algorithms used here are based upon the algorithms developed
+and published by Haruhiko Okumura in a paper entitled "Data Compression
+Algorithms of LARC and LHarc." This paper discusses three compression
+algorithms, LSZZ, LZARI, and LZHUF. LZSS is described as the "first" of
+these, and is described as providing moderate compression with good speed.
+LZARI is described as an improved LZSS, a combination of the LZSS algorithm
+with adaptive arithmetic compression. It is described as being slower than
+LZSS but with better compression. LZHUF (the basis of the common LHA
+compression program) was included in the paper, however, a free usage license
+was not included.
+
+The following are copies of the statements included at the beginning of each
+source code listing that was supplied in the working paper.
+
+ LZSS, dated 4/6/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
+ modify this program freely."
+
+ LZARI, dated 4/7/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
+ modify this program freely."
+
+ LZHUF, dated 11/20/88, written by Haruyasu Yoshizaki,
+ translated by Haruhiko Okumura on 4/7/89. Not
+ expressly marked as redistributable or modifiable.
+
+Since both LZSS and LZARI are marked as "use, distribute and modify freely" we
+have felt at liberty basing our compression algorithm on either of these.
+
+Selection of Algorithm
+----------------------
+
+Working samples of three possible compression algorithms are supplied in
+Okumura's paper. Which should be used?
+
+LZSS is the fastest at decompression, but does not generated as small a
+compressed file as the other methods. The other two methods provided, perhaps,
+a 15% improvement in compression. Or, put another way, on a 100K file, LZSS
+might compress it to 50K while the others might approach 40-45K. For STEP
+purposes, it was decided that decoding speed was of more importance than
+tighter compression. For these reasons, the first compression algorithm
+implemented is the LZSS algorithm.
+
+About LZSS Encoding
+-------------------
+
+(adapted from Haruhiko Okumura's paper)
+
+This scheme was proposed by Ziv and Lempel [1]. A slightly modified version
+is described by Storer and Szymanski [2]. An implementation using a binary
+tree has been proposed by Bell [3].
+
+The algorithm is quite simple.
+1. Keep a ring buffer which initially contains all space characters.
+2. Read several letters from the file to the buffer.
+3. Search the buffer for the longest string that matches the letters just
+ read, and send its length and position into the buffer.
+
+If the ring buffer is 4096 bytes, the position can be stored in 12 bits. If the
+length is represented in 4 bits, the <position, length> pair is two bytes
+long. If the longest match is no more than two characters, then just one
+character is sent without encoding. The process starts again with the next
+character. An extra bit is sent each time to tell the decoder whether the
+next item is a character of a <position, length> pair.

+// N - This is the size of the ring buffer. It is set
+// to 4K. It is important to note that a position
+// within the ring buffer requires 12 bits.
+//
+// F - This is the maximum length of a character sequence
+// that can be taken from the ring buffer. It is set
+// to 18. Note that a length must be 3 before it is
+// worthwhile to store a position/length pair, so the
+// length can be encoded in only 4 bits. Or, put yet
+// another way, it is not necessary to encode a length
+// of 0-18, it is necessary to encode a length of
+// 3-18, which requires 4 bits.
+//
+// THRESHOLD - It takes 2 bytes to store an offset and
+// a length. If a character sequence only
+// requires 1 or 2 characters to store
+// uncompressed, then it is better to store
+// it uncompressed than as an offset into
+// the ring buffer.

-Source of Algorithm
--------------------
-
-The compression algorithms used here are based upon the algorithms developed
-and published by Haruhiko Okumura in a paper entitled "Data Compression
-Algorithms of LARC and LHarc." This paper discusses three compression
-algorithms, LSZZ, LZARI, and LZHUF. LZSS is described as the "first" of
-these, and is described as providing moderate compression with good speed.
-LZARI is described as an improved LZSS, a combination of the LZSS algorithm
-with adaptive arithmetic compression. It is described as being slower than
-LZSS but with better compression. LZHUF (the basis of the common LHA
-compression program) was included in the paper, however, a free usage license
-was not included.
-
-The following are copies of the statements included at the beginning of each
-source code listing that was supplied in the working paper.
-
- LZSS, dated 4/6/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
- modify this program freely."
-
- LZARI, dated 4/7/89, marked as "Use, distribute and
- modify this program freely."
-
- LZHUF, dated 11/20/88, written by Haruyasu Yoshizaki,
- translated by Haruhiko Okumura on 4/7/89. Not
- expressly marked as redistributable or modifiable.
-
-Since both LZSS and LZARI are marked as "use, distribute and modify freely" we
-have felt at liberty basing our compression algorithm on either of these.
-
-Selection of Algorithm
-----------------------
-
-Working samples of three possible compression algorithms are supplied in
-Okumura's paper. Which should be used?
-
-LZSS is the fastest at decompression, but does not generated as small a
-compressed file as the other methods. The other two methods provided, perhaps,
-a 15% improvement in compression. Or, put another way, on a 100K file, LZSS
-might compress it to 50K while the others might approach 40-45K. For STEP
-purposes, it was decided that decoding speed was of more importance than
-tighter compression. For these reasons, the first compression algorithm
-implemented is the LZSS algorithm.
-
-About LZSS Encoding
--------------------
-
-(adapted from Haruhiko Okumura's paper)
-
-This scheme was proposed by Ziv and Lempel [1]. A slightly modified version
-is described by Storer and Szymanski [2]. An implementation using a binary
-tree has been proposed by Bell [3].
-
-The algorithm is quite simple.
-1. Keep a ring buffer which initially contains all space characters.
-2. Read several letters from the file to the buffer.
-3. Search the buffer for the longest string that matches the letters just
- read, and send its length and position into the buffer.
-
-If the ring buffer is 4096 bytes, the position can be stored in 12 bits. If the
-length is represented in 4 bits, the <position, length> pair is two bytes
-long. If the longest match is no more than two characters, then just one
-character is sent without encoding. The process starts again with the next
-character. An extra bit is sent each time to tell the decoder whether the
-next item is a character of a <position, length> pair.

-// N - This is the size of the ring buffer. It is set

-// within the ring buffer requires 12 bits.
-//
-// F - This is the maximum length of a character sequence
-// that can be taken from the ring buffer. It is set
-// to 18. Note that a length must be 3 before it is
-// worthwhile to store a position/length pair, so the
-// length can be encoded in only 4 bits. Or, put yet
-// another way, it is not necessary to encode a length
-// of 0-18, it is necessary to encode a length of
-// 3-18, which requires 4 bits.
-//
-// THRESHOLD - It takes 2 bytes to store an offset and
-// a length. If a character sequence only
-// requires 1 or 2 characters to store
-// uncompressed, then it is better to store
-// it uncompressed than as an offset into
-// the ring buffer.
