Cygwin NEWS: ============ * Routine update liblzo2 NEWS: =============== * Updated the ELF assembler sources to mark the stack as non-executable. * Fixed a HP-UX 11 build issue with Itanium in ILP32 mode. * Updated the configure system. DESCRIPTION: ============ LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over compression ratio. LZO implements a number of algorithms with the following features: * Decompression is simple and *very* fast. * Requires no memory for decompression. * Compression is pretty fast. * Requires 64 kB of memory for compression. * Allows you to dial up extra compression at a speed cost in the compressor. The speed of the decompressor is not reduced. * Includes compression levels for generating pre-compressed data which achieve a quite competitive compression ratio. * There is also a compression level which needs only 8 kB for compression. * Algorithm is thread safe. * Algorithm is lossless. LZO supports overlapping compression and in-place decompression. UPDATE: ======= To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'liblzo2' from the 'Libs' category (it should already be selected). DOWNLOAD: ========= Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you: http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html QUESTIONS: ========== If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. -- Dr. Volker Zell volunteer cygwin liblzo2 maintainer CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO: ================================= To unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
