Short Description:

The LZH package consists of two modules for compression and decompression of
files.  They are similar in style to John Kortink's LZW modules but provide
significantly greater compression with similarly low overheads (only 32k on
decompression). The compression techniques used are a Finite window technique
with secondary dynamic huffman compression similar to gzip/zip/pkzip (but not
the same). The modules are written in 100% lovingly handcrafted ARM code and
are very fast (relatively) on compress and decompress.

There are currently two modules supplied here, LZH and LZHD. The LZH module
allows both compression/decompression of files, and the LZHD module allows
just decompression of files. Note: The LZHD module claims all workspace it
needs when it is loaded, so there is no need to keep RMA free for it. This
is for ease of use in memory tight situations.
