-LZMA SDK 19.00
---------------
-
-LZMA SDK provides the documentation, samples, header files,
-libraries, and tools you need to develop applications that 
-use 7z / LZMA / LZMA2 / XZ compression.
-
-LZMA is an improved version of famous LZ77 compression algorithm. 
-It was improved in way of maximum increasing of compression ratio,
-keeping high decompression speed and low memory requirements for 
-decompressing.
-
-LZMA2 is a LZMA based compression method. LZMA2 provides better 
-multithreading support for compression than LZMA and some other improvements.
-
-7z is a file format for data compression and file archiving.
-7z is a main file format for 7-Zip compression program (www.7-zip.org).
-7z format supports different compression methods: LZMA, LZMA2 and others.
-7z also supports AES-256 based encryption.
-
-XZ is a file format for data compression that uses LZMA2 compression.
-XZ format provides additional features: SHA/CRC check, filters for 
-improved compression ratio, splitting to blocks and streams,

-------------------
-To compile C++ version of file->file LZMA encoding, go to directory
-CPP/7zip/Bundles/LzmaCon
-and call make to recompile it:
-  make -f makefile.gcc clean all
-
-In some UNIX/Linux versions you must compile LZMA with static libraries.
-To compile with static libraries, you can use 
-LIB = -lm -static
-
-Also you can use p7zip (port of 7-Zip for POSIX systems like Unix or Linux):

-LZMA features
--------------
-  - Variable dictionary size (up to 1 GB)
-  - Estimated compressing speed: about 2 MB/s on 2 GHz CPU
-  - Estimated decompressing speed: 
-      - 20-30 MB/s on modern 2 GHz cpu
-      - 1-2 MB/s on 200 MHz simple RISC cpu: (ARM, MIPS, PowerPC)
-  - Small memory requirements for decompressing (16 KB + DictionarySize)
-  - Small code size for decompressing: 5-8 KB
-
-LZMA decoder uses only integer operations and can be 
-implemented in any modern 32-bit CPU (or on 16-bit CPU with some conditions).
-
-Some critical operations that affect the speed of LZMA decompression:
-  1) 32*16 bit integer multiply
-  2) Mispredicted branches (penalty mostly depends from pipeline length)
-  3) 32-bit shift and arithmetic operations
-
-The speed of LZMA decompressing mostly depends from CPU speed.
-Memory speed has no big meaning. But if your CPU has small data cache, 
-overall weight of memory speed will slightly increase.
-
-
-How To Use
-----------
-
-Using LZMA encoder/decoder executable
---------------------------------------
-
-Usage:  LZMA <e|d> inputFile outputFile [<switches>...]
-
-  e: encode file
-
-  d: decode file
-
-  b: Benchmark. There are two tests: compressing and decompressing 
-     with LZMA method. Benchmark shows rating in MIPS (million 
-     instructions per second). Rating value is calculated from 
-     measured speed and it is normalized with Intel's Core 2 results.
-     Also Benchmark checks possible hardware errors (RAM 
-     errors in most cases). Benchmark uses these settings:
-     (-a1, -d21, -fb32, -mfbt4). You can change only -d parameter. 
-     Also you can change the number of iterations. Example for 30 iterations:
-       LZMA b 30
-     Default number of iterations is 10.
-
-<Switches>
-  
-
-  -a{N}:  set compression mode 0 = fast, 1 = normal
-          default: 1 (normal)
-
-  d{N}:   Sets Dictionary size - [0, 30], default: 23 (8MB)
-          The maximum value for dictionary size is 1 GB = 2^30 bytes.
-          Dictionary size is calculated as DictionarySize = 2^N bytes. 
-          For decompressing file compressed by LZMA method with dictionary 
-          size D = 2^N you need about D bytes of memory (RAM).
-
-  -fb{N}: set number of fast bytes - [5, 273], default: 128
-          Usually big number gives a little bit better compression ratio 
-          and slower compression process.
-
-  -lc{N}: set number of literal context bits - [0, 8], default: 3
-          Sometimes lc=4 gives gain for big files.
-
-  -lp{N}: set number of literal pos bits - [0, 4], default: 0
-          lp switch is intended for periodical data when period is 
-          equal 2^N. For example, for 32-bit (4 bytes) 
-          periodical data you can use lp=2. Often it's better to set lc0, 
-          if you change lp switch.
-
-  -pb{N}: set number of pos bits - [0, 4], default: 2
-          pb switch is intended for periodical data 
-          when period is equal 2^N.
-
-  -mf{MF_ID}: set Match Finder. Default: bt4. 
-              Algorithms from hc* group doesn't provide good compression 
-              ratio, but they often works pretty fast in combination with 
-              fast mode (-a0).
-
-              Memory requirements depend from dictionary size 
-              (parameter "d" in table below). 
-
-               MF_ID     Memory                   Description
-
-                bt2    d *  9.5 + 4MB  Binary Tree with 2 bytes hashing.
-                bt3    d * 11.5 + 4MB  Binary Tree with 3 bytes hashing.
-                bt4    d * 11.5 + 4MB  Binary Tree with 4 bytes hashing.
-                hc4    d *  7.5 + 4MB  Hash Chain with 4 bytes hashing.
-
-  -eos:   write End Of Stream marker. By default LZMA doesn't write 
-          eos marker, since LZMA decoder knows uncompressed size 
-          stored in .lzma file header.
-
-  -si:    Read data from stdin (it will write End Of Stream marker).
-  -so:    Write data to stdout
-
-
-Examples:
-
-1) LZMA e file.bin file.lzma -d16 -lc0 
-
-compresses file.bin to file.lzma with 64 KB dictionary (2^16=64K)  
-and 0 literal context bits. -lc0 allows to reduce memory requirements 
-for decompression.
-
-
-2) LZMA e file.bin file.lzma -lc0 -lp2
-
-compresses file.bin to file.lzma with settings suitable 
-for 32-bit periodical data (for example, ARM or MIPS code).
-
-3) LZMA d file.lzma file.bin
-
-decompresses file.lzma to file.bin.
-
-
-Compression ratio hints
------------------------
-
-Recommendations
----------------
-
-To increase the compression ratio for LZMA compressing it's desirable 
-to have aligned data (if it's possible) and also it's desirable to locate
-data in such order, where code is grouped in one place and data is 
-grouped in other place (it's better than such mixing: code, data, code,
-data, ...).
-
-
-Filters
--------
-You can increase the compression ratio for some data types, using
-special filters before compressing. For example, it's possible to 
-increase the compression ratio on 5-10% for code for those CPU ISAs: 
-x86, IA-64, ARM, ARM-Thumb, PowerPC, SPARC.
-
-You can find C source code of such filters in C/Bra*.* files
-
-You can check the compression ratio gain of these filters with such 
-7-Zip commands (example for ARM code):
-No filter:
-  7z a a1.7z a.bin -m0=lzma
-
-With filter for little-endian ARM code:
-  7z a a2.7z a.bin -m0=arm -m1=lzma        
-
-It works in such manner:
-Compressing    = Filter_encoding + LZMA_encoding
-Decompressing  = LZMA_decoding + Filter_decoding
-
-Compressing and decompressing speed of such filters is very high,
-so it will not increase decompressing time too much.
-Moreover, it reduces decompression time for LZMA_decoding, 
-since compression ratio with filtering is higher.
-
-These filters convert CALL (calling procedure) instructions 
-from relative offsets to absolute addresses, so such data becomes more 
-compressible.
-
-For some ISAs (for example, for MIPS) it's impossible to get gain from such filter.
