    Compression utility source code

    AHM BACK!

    i've been looking everywhere for source code on a compression utility, then ill use that to make one of my own, after learning from the source code.

    I was wanting to know if anyone has source code to a compression utility?

    Thanks you ahead of time.

    anything that will work in Dev C++? that didn't work, and i was hoping for something a wee bit easier on the brain, meant for one platform, like ACE is, a DOS compression

    I do NOT understand windows command at all either..

    but quick reply, thanks!

    try these links:

    These describe the huffman compression algorithm, which I consider one of the easier ones to start with. More can be found on the net using a search engine such as google.

    This works on Dev-C++ for sure, and if you don't want to think, don't attempt a moderately challenging piece of code.
