-This file is an abridged version of README from bzip2 1.0.4
-Build instructions (which are not relevant to busyboxed bzip2)
-are removed.
-===========================================================
-
-
-This is the README for bzip2/libzip2.
-This version is fully compatible with the previous public releases.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------
-This file is part of bzip2/libbzip2, a program and library for
-lossless, block-sorting data compression.
-
-bzip2/libbzip2 version 1.0.4 of 20 December 2006
-Copyright (C) 1996-2006 Julian Seward <jseward@bzip.org>
-
-Please read the WARNING, DISCLAIMER and PATENTS sections in this file.
-
-This program is released under the terms of the license contained
-in the file LICENSE.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Please read and be aware of the following:
-
-
-WARNING:
-
- This program and library (attempts to) compress data by
- performing several non-trivial transformations on it.
- Unless you are 100% familiar with *all* the algorithms
- contained herein, and with the consequences of modifying them,
- you should NOT meddle with the compression or decompression
- machinery. Incorrect changes can and very likely *will*
- lead to disastrous loss of data.
-
-
-DISCLAIMER:
-
- I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA ARISING FROM THE
- USE OF THIS PROGRAM/LIBRARY, HOWSOEVER CAUSED.
-
- Every compression of a file implies an assumption that the
- compressed file can be decompressed to reproduce the original.
- Great efforts in design, coding and testing have been made to
- ensure that this program works correctly. However, the complexity
- of the algorithms, and, in particular, the presence of various
- special cases in the code which occur with very low but non-zero
- probability make it impossible to rule out the possibility of bugs
- remaining in the program. DO NOT COMPRESS ANY DATA WITH THIS
- PROGRAM UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO ACCEPT THE POSSIBILITY, HOWEVER
- SMALL, THAT THE DATA WILL NOT BE RECOVERABLE.
-
- That is not to say this program is inherently unreliable.
- Indeed, I very much hope the opposite is true. bzip2/libbzip2
- has been carefully constructed and extensively tested.
-
-
-PATENTS:
-
- To the best of my knowledge, bzip2/libbzip2 does not use any
- patented algorithms. However, I do not have the resources
- to carry out a patent search. Therefore I cannot give any
- guarantee of the above statement.
-
-
-I hope you find bzip2 useful. Feel free to contact me at
- jseward@bzip.org
-if you have any suggestions or queries. Many people mailed me with
-comments, suggestions and patches after the releases of bzip-0.15,
-bzip-0.21, and bzip2 versions 0.1pl2, 0.9.0, 0.9.5, 1.0.0, 1.0.1,
-1.0.2 and 1.0.3, and the changes in bzip2 are largely a result of this
-feedback. I thank you for your comments.
