It includes an LZSSTEST.EXE utility that can compress and decompress files.<br /> <br /> The shareware version of LZSSLib has one variant of the library: EDILZSSA.DLL. The registered version has two more, EDILZSSB.DLL and EDILZSSC.DLL, with different speed/size trade-offs. Only EDILZSSA.DLL has been evaluated for this article.<br /> <br /> == File structure ==<br /> The EDILZSSA.DLL file format consists of:<br /> * 8-byte signature: &quot;&lt;code&gt;EDILZSS1&lt;/code&gt;&quot;.<br /> * Compressed data. The format is possibly identical to that of [[LZSS (Haruhiko Okumura)|Okumura's LZSS software]].<br /> <br /> == Identification ==<br /> Files start with ASCII &quot;{{magic|EDILZSS1}}&quot;. Unfortunately, this does not distinguish them from [[EDI Install packed file]]. There seems to be no simple way to do that.<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[EDI Install packed file]]<br /> <br /> == Software ==<br /> * {{CdTextfiles|cica/cica9603/disk2/disc2/programr/lzsslib.zip|EDI LZSSLib v1.00}}</div>
