Description-en: ZPAQ open standard maximum compressor (prebuilt levels)
PAQ family is a series of open source data compression archivers that have
evolved through collaborative development to top rankings on several
benchmarks measuring compression ratio although at the expense of
speed and memory usage.
.
This package includes program zp (a ZPAQ archiver), a proposed
standard format for highly compressed data that allows new
compression algorithms to be developed without breaking compatibility
with older programs.
.
Note: zp is the "user friendly" version of zpaq(1) archiver. Zp comes
with 3 prebuilt and optimized compression levels. It does not
require configuration file for min, med, max compression levels.
