Re: Lossless Compression Help!

["Jason Lee" <jasonjlee@xxxxxxx>]

I did give ken a direct link to the codec I'm using.

I would be going easier on him if he didn't suggest

1) I owned less books than him. Thats very hurtful :(

2) He said I owned Sky Digital. Thats hurtful too :(

3) He suggested I go and read up about this after I gave him a direct
link
to http://math.berkeley.edu/~benrg/huffyuv.html
which says it all really.

Oh well. Still waiting for an apology.
