Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #6757: Add lzw_compressor and lzw_decompressor filters https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6757 <p> Boost.IOstreams has support for BZ2, GZIP, and DEFLATE compression/decompression. To be able to read output from the POSIX-standard <code>compress</code> utility, it would be nice if the library also supported compression and decompression with the Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) algorithm. </p> <p> Here are some LZW implementations that might be of use: </p> <ul><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://marknelson.us/2011/11/08/lzw-revisited/"><span class="icon">​</span>LZW Revisited</a> by Mark Nelson </li><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://michael.dipperstein.com/lzw/"><span class="icon">​</span>Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) Encoding Discussion and Implementation</a> by Michael Dipperstein </li><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/freetype/freetype2.git/tree/src/lzw"><span class="icon">​</span>libfreetype2's LZW support</a> </li><li><a class="ext-link" href="http://rosettacode.org/wiki/LZW_compression"><span class="icon">​</span>LZW compression</a> on Rosetta Code </li></ul> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/6757 Trac 1.4.3
