- SQUASH/CRUNCH COMPARISON
-
-
- There has been lots of controversy about the 'SQUASH' data compression
- algorithm introduced in PKX35A35 for the MS-DOS folks. Perhaps my fellow
- CP/M loyalists will enjoy this comparison:
-
- Source file: 9600-87J.LST (List of 9600 baud BBS's) - 133 records
-
- PKARC SQUASHED (vers. 9) file (9600-87J.ARC) - 80 records
-
- CRUNCH23 file (9600-87J.LZT) - 76 records
