 For a projects course, my group will try to build a poor-man's trailblazer.
 We plan to use a 6809 based board to perform compression and packetizing. 
With only a 6809(2Mhz) advanced compression methods like LZW are right out
because of CPU power. Our plan is to use Huffman codes off several fixed tables
along with some kind of run-length encoding. Keeping in mind our strict CPU
limitation, can anyone provide pointers and/or advice for compression info?

Thank you.           (please E-mail, I'll summarize if others are interested)

     Hey, remember the one who pretended to be a super-villain to get beaten ?
     Whatever happened to him ?
     He pulled it on Rorshach and Rorshach dropped him down an elevator shaft.
