Title:          bzip -- a block-sorting file compressor
Version:        0.21
Entered-date:   30SEP96
Description:    bzip is a high-quality implementation of the Burrows-Wheeler
                block-sorting-based lossless compression algorithm.
                Compression is generally considerably better than that
                achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors
                (like gzip), and competitive with all but the best of the
                PPM family of statistical compressors.
                Bzip generally gives better compression than gzip it
                also generally takes longer.
