Could someone please elaborate on LZFG? I thought I knew what it was supposed to be, but after seeing the extremely good compression rates in the-introduction-article, I'm not so sure any more. As I see it now, LZFG does not use a secondary (Huffman or Shano-Fannon) encoder. What was the dictionary size that was used in the example LZFG encoder? -- Sincerely, berg@marvin.e17.physik.tu-muenchen.de Stephen R. van den Berg.
