<para>
|
||
|
bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text
|
||
|
compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally
|
||
|
considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based
|
||
|
compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of statistical
|
||
|
compressors.
