No no no. The huffman he's referring to is *huffman coding* which is 
used for lossless data compression, specifically I think, used in the 
compression algorithms for ZIP, JPEG, and MPEG.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huffman_coding




He supposedly understands *how* to implement the particular algorithm to 
compress his text files (or maybe he already has the code for it or 
whatever), but not how to do the UI stuff, which really should be waay 
easier than implementing the algorithm.
