There >you'll see the whole non-sordid tale :-), explained quite well. It is also wrong. They screwed up what goes in the count bytes. For example, the BYTE article says that for a repeat, the count byte is repeat count+128. It really should be 257-count. They also screwed up the count for non-repeating bytes. They have anmaybe 257-count; my stuff is off by one error. I don't remember which way it went. I think it is count_byte = count-1. -- Tim Smith USENET: sdcrdcf!ism780c!tim || ima!ism780!tim "hey, bay-BEE'...hey, bay-BEE'" Compuserve: 72257,3706 Delphi || GEnie: mnementh
