(These are the licensing details for this directory, taken from lzma.txt in
|
|
the original source distribution. The basic gist is you can do what you want
|
|
with this code, including sell it in a closed-source app...changes to LZMA
|
|
itself must be released as source code, which in the case of PhysicsFS, you
|
|
can just point people to our source code repository unless you make further
|
|
changes yourself. --ryan.)

|
|
LZMA SDK provides developers with documentation, source code,
|
|
and sample code necessary to write software that uses LZMA compression.
|
|
|
|
LZMA is default and general compression method of 7z format
|
|
in 7-Zip compression program (www.7-zip.org). LZMA provides high
|
|
compression ratio and very fast decompression.
|
|
|
|
LZMA is an improved version of famous LZ77 compression algorithm.
|
|
It was improved in way of maximum increasing of compression ratio,
|
|
keeping high decompression speed and low memory requirements for
|
|
decompressing.
