The original LZWCOM program referred to in Steven Greenberg's
description of his CRUNCH/UNCRUNCH program is available from
SIMTEL20 as:

Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory PD:<CPM.SQUSQ>
LZW.LBR.1			BINARY	 50816  0D23H

This LBR contains the following files:

 COMMLZW.C
 LZW.C
 LZW.DQC
 LZW.SUB
 LZWCOM.COM
 LZWUNC.C
 LZWUNC.COM

Please remember that Greenberg has pointed out some shortcomings and
problems with the original LZWCOM approach.  However, this should be a
good starting place for making a Unix C version of Greenberg's
enhanced cruncher.  The LZW.DOC file says that the C programs can be
compiled on Unix and should be reasonably portable.

Please keep me posted on your progress.  I need a C version myself for
use here on SIMTEL20 to maintain the crunched files.
