Hi,

I am writing a program to unpack .LBR archives on UNIX (perhaps pack later).
I have the structure of the archive (which is fairly simple).

What I am looking for is a description of the compression algorithms
used when squeezing or crunching files (i.e. generating *.?Z? or *.?Q?)

Any pointers or help?
I'll make the program available if there is any interest!

thanks in advance
