I am interested in finding extant modules that contain Julia implementations of compression/decompression schemes in the vein of Huffman, LZ* and friends. I am aware of various zlib wrappers but am interested in an implementation that lets me work directly with an arbitrary symbol set so that I can, for example, compress an array of UTF8 strings as opposed to an array of bytes. I am specifically interested in inspecting/manipulating the encodings, so its useful that they be represented by their original types.
Any pointers to modules would be much appreciated.
