I've got a binary file I'm parsing in LiveCode, and it contains sections that are compressed with the deflate compressor. This is the same format revZip works with, except this isn't a group of files, it's just raw byes.
Has anyone worked out a way previously to handle this in a multi-platform way? I'm pretty sure I could pipe this data through the shell command - one way or another - to have a command line gzip on Macs decompress it for me. But I don't know of a way to do this on Windows that doesn't require an additional install. Maybe there's some way to fool revZip into doing it for me? I'm not against writing the data out to a temporary file, if that is necessary, though it's best to avoid that sort of thing. It's already in memory, so it's best to keep it there for the decode. ~ Chris Innanen ~ Nonsanity _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
