Hey Everyone!
Pasi has completed the Plus/4 - C16 versions of his zipping program,
PUZip! It looks like he will be doing an unzip client as well. Take a look at the message below.....
Later on,
Ray.
If you can do it on a PC.......
.......Remember, a Commodore 8-bit has been doin' it longer!

I have put them on my page at http://www.cs.tut.fi/~albert/Dev/ -> PuZip.
Feel free to distribute that URL and/or the program files, but of course my site always has the latest versions.

I started work on gunzip.+4 but it will be a little harder work because more ROM/RAM switching has to be done. Fortunately I can check the switching quite easily with C64. Also, adding the switching code allows me to make the output buffer much larger than it is currently, so in fact the C64 version also benefits from that.
> Thanks again for the Plus/4 PuZip! :)
I almost always do what I promise to do :-)
