I would suggest that the one-who-implements the ZIP stuff just write it
standalone (clean and lean) and that RT will include it than into their

I didn't dig to deep yet but here are some more links of interest:
http://www.ddj.com/topics/compression/
http://www.dogma.net/DataCompression/
http://www.dogma.net/markn/ This is the homepage of Mark Nelson, I have a
old piece of code for a ZIPer, which is 8054 bytes long. Quite cool, might
be a good starting point. Robert
