Re: LZ: Variables and Compression



about the compression stuff, i'm starting on a compression program that
should compress string vars. although, with the method i'm usingg, i need
some way(in tibasic) to figure out if a subbed character is a character or
a number. is this possible? here is how i hope it will work in the future:
the string "99A" will uncompress to 99 uppercase A's so, with this method,
the zshell games won't compress too well since there aren't too many
characters in them that are consecutively congruent. although, if i can
find out how to convert them to binary strings, i would hope that they would
shrink tremendously. i hope this works..............
