The program seems to do really well, though incredibly slow. I ran a quick (?) test to see how comic would do under stress: I tested the compression of a large news "history" file, the binary of "tex" and concatanated sources for "byacc". Here are the results under a Sun 3/60. Comic was compiled with GCC. name size comic time(sec) %reduc BYACC 116241 28579 199.5 76% history 2290864 716280 3911.0 69% tex 811008 186957 14253.9 77% I'd say there is something to this program. Hey, so we would run it overnight :-). Also, would it be possible to post comicgen sources? oz --- First learn your horn and all the theory. Internet: oz@nexus.yorku.ca Next develop a style. Then forget all that uucp: utzoo/utai!yunexus!oz and just play. Charlie Parker [?] York U. CCS: (416) 736 5257
