Lzlib is a data compression library providing in-memory LZMA compression and 
decompression functions, including integrity checking of the decompressed 
data. The compressed data format used by the library is the lzip format. 
Lzlib is written in C.

Changes in this version:

  * In minilzip, file diagnostics have been reformatted as 'PROGRAM: FILE: 
MESSAGE'.

  * In minilzip, diagnostics caused by invalid arguments to command-line 
options now show the argument and the name of the option.

  * It has been documented in the manual that it is the responsibility of 
the program using lzlib to include before 'lzlib.h' some header that 
declares the type 'uint8_t'. (Reported by Michal Górny).

  * The variable MAKEINFO has been added to configure and Makefile.in.

  * It has been documented in INSTALL that when choosing a C standard, the 
POSIX features need to be enabled explicitly:
  ./configure CFLAGS+='--std=c99 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500'


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, lzlib author and maintainer.
