Пакет lzip: Информация

Lzip is a lossless file compressor based on the LZMA
(Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain-Algorithm) algorithm designed by Igor Pavlov.
The high compression of LZMA comes from combining two basic,
well-proven compression ideas: sliding dictionaries (i.e. LZ77/78),
and Markov models (i.e. the thing used by every compression algorithm
that uses a range encoder or similar order-0 entropy coder as its last
stage) with segregation of contexts according to what the bits are
used for.
