Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of bzip2 v1.0.0
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is an announcement of DJGPP port of bzip2 1.0.0.

  bzip2 is a compressor/decompressor program with
generally considerably better compression rate than
that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based
compressors.
The command-line options are deliberately very similar
to those of GNU gzip, but they are not identical.

There are 3 archives (date: 2000-05-30):
   ftp://ftp.simtel.NET/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/bz2-100b.zip
   ftp://ftp.simtel.NET/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/bz2-100d.zip
   ftp://ftp.simtel.NET/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/bz2-100s.zip
which are available from the DJGPP distribution at Simtel.NET
and mirror sites in the v2apps directory.

For information about bzip2 see:
   http://sourceware.cygnus.com/bzip2/


Install the archive(s) like any other DJGPP package described
in the DJGPP FAQ, which means, copy them to any location
on your HD, let's say to c:/tmp, change to your root DJGPP
directory, let's say to c:/djgpp, and unzip there the archive preserving
the directory structure. After that PLEASE READ the file:
   readme.dos
which will be located then in the directory contrib/bzip2-1.00/ which will
describe more details.
