Source: grzip Section: utils Priority: optional Maintainer: Jean-Pierre Demailly Standards-Version: 3.7.2 Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), gettext Package: grzip Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends} Description: GRZip grzip is a high-performance file compressor based on Burrows-Wheeler Transform, Schindler Transform, Move-To-Front, and Weighted Frequency Counting. It uses the Block-Sorting Lossless Data Compression Algorithm, which has received considerable attention in recent years for both its simplicity and effectiveness. This implementation has a compression rate of 2.234 bps on the Calgary Corpus (14 files) without preprocessing filters. This is essentially an adaptation/extension of GRZipII by Ilya Grebnov. .
