Compression- 2000-02-27 - C64Pack - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
- Here is a decompressor for GB for the C64Pack compression program. It doesn't quite compress as well as RNC method 2 and takes about 2 times longer for decompression. Use the compressor in this package because the C64Pack compressor on the PuCrunch web page will not compress raw data.

- PuCrunch seems to provide better compression than RNC method 2 (on average) but it is about 5 times slower during decompression. Use PUCRUNCH -d -c0 inputfile outputfile. Otherwise Commodore 64 decompression code will be included in the packed data and the GB doesn't need that! NOTE: USE THE WIN95 VERSION. THE DOS VERSION OF PUCRUNCH DOESN"T SUPPORT OPTION -c0 THAT LETS YOU LEAVE OUT THE C64 CODE.
- 2000-02-27 - RNC v2.14 - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
- This is a compression package by Rob Northen Computing. It is free for non-commercial uses. For info on licensing it email Rob at rob@FILTER.markettrader.co.uk. (Remove FILTER.)

The output can be compiled with the Table ASseMbler (TASM).
