Many thanks to all who responded to my LZW query. I now have a plethora
of references available, thanks to many helpful responses both onlist
and offlist.
I can't say for sure what compression algorithm I'll use in the updated
ARCHIVER; overall performance and some of the technical details will
still need exploration but I've got some starting points now.
Thanks again to all who helped.
Rick :-)
