lzhuf

A Winlink framework for Go.

A Python implementation of the LZHUF compression algorithm, ported from the C version at ARSFI/Winlink-Compression. Supports encoding and decoding data using a binary search tree and Huffman coding. Ideal for retro computing, ASCII art compression, or experimental projects.

Zero Comico (Windows, GMM Entertainment / Medusa Games, 2001) documented from the bytes: two in-house containers wrapping a 1989 LZHUF stream, 69.49 % of the CD spent on 13 minutes of all-keyframe Indeo video, an engine still carrying a cancelled game, and a retail executable whose version resource says Playable Demo. No assets.

Measuring the Blood & Lace disc (GMM Entertainment, Tortona, 2001): a Nero master, a signed engine licence inside japotek3d.dll, and a chapter-by-chapter comparison with its sibling Zero Comico, which shares the engine seven months later.
