930	iostream and zlib	jorma9@…	Douglas Gregor	"{{{
I've successfully used (only slightly modified) classes
gzifstream and
gzofstream in SGI IRIX and GNU Linux environments.  The
code was
obtained from directory zlib-1.1.3/contrib/iostream of
http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/zlib/zlib.tar.gz .

Now it seems to me that the code won't compile with
standard iostream classes.  Has anyone made the
necessary changes to compile it ? Or, does someone know
that it won't be possible to make it work again ? Or,
is there a better solution for that need, ie. to have a
pair of classes derived from istream and ostream that
allow compression and uncompression on the fly ?

Yours,

Jorma Laaksonen
