I did a research paper on this subject a while back.... let me see if I can
find the stuff....

The Data Compression book 2nd edition by Mark Nelson was an excellent
resource... but if you're on the cheap, check out his web site, you can
download a lot of his code

also check out this massive page of compression links:

hope this helps!
