At the Summer USENIX conference, I volunteered to look into using a text compression algorithm to reduce the cost of news transmissions over long-distance phone lines. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience in/knowledge of text compression techniques. I'm particularly interested in existing code that might be modified for use, and comparisons of various algorithms (Huffman, LZW, etc.). Thank you in advance. -Lloyd W.
