- First, thanks to everyone who answered my Notification Manager question.
- (I didn't have the latest tech notes yet)
- Second, does anyone know what the best published (Public Domain) algorithm is
- for compressing text. And does anyone know where I could get my hands on examplesource code for said algorithm (The only one I've seen is Lempel-Ziv).
- Thanks in advance,
- AL
