Message-ID: <8901260948.aa19947@SMOKE.BRL.MIL> Date: 26 Jan 89 14:48:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 17 Two new questions for me, probably not so new for others. Now that I have a description of the Binary II protocol, and I think I understand it I can play with it on my own, but... 1) How many different compression schemes are there? and 2) by schemes, I mean how many different algorithms are there out there? and 2) If there's more than one compression algorithm in use, doesn't that create some problems? How is everyone dealing with this? Luther Atkinson@VCUVAX.BITNET Atkinson@ruby.vcu.edu
