Lasse Collin 982da7ed31 The .xz file format specification version 1.0.0 is now 
officially released. The format has been technically the same
since 2008-11-19, but now that it is frozen, people can start
using it without a fear that the format will break.
 2009-01-28 17:16:38 +02:00
Lasse Collin bceb3918db Put the file format specification into the public domain. 
Same will be done to the actual code later.

Lasse Collin e114502b2b Oh well, big messy commit again. Some highlights: 
- Updated to the latest, probably final file format version.
  - Command line tool reworked to not use threads anymore.
    Threading will probably go into liblzma anyway.
  - Memory usage limit is now about 30 % for uncompression
    and about 90 % for compression.
  - Progress indicator with --verbose
  - Simplified --help and full --long-help
  - Upgraded to the last LGPLv2.1+ getopt_long from gnulib.
  - Some bug fixes

Lasse Collin c6ca26eef7 Updated file format specification. It changes the suffix 
of the new format to .xz and removes the recently added
LZMA filter.
 2008-09-27 19:11:02 +03:00
Lasse Collin 07efcb5a6b Changed Filter ID of LZMA to 0x20. 2008-09-07 10:23:13 +03:00
Lasse Collin bea301c26d Minor updates to the file format specification. 2008-09-03 17:06:25 +03:00
Lasse Collin bf6348d1a3 Update the file format specification draft. The new one is 
a lot simpler than the previous versions, but it also means
that the existing code will change a lot.

Lasse Collin e55e0e873c Typo fixes from meyering. 2008-05-30 11:53:41 +03:00
Lasse Collin 11de5d5267 Bunch of grammar fixes from meyering. 2008-05-06 15:15:07 +03:00
Lasse Collin 3be21fb12f Fixed wrong spelling "limitter" to "limiter". This affects 
liblzma's API.
 2008-04-28 17:06:34 +03:00
Lasse Collin de74858062 Tiny clean up to file-format.txt. 2008-02-06 13:25:32 +02:00
Lasse Collin bc0b945ca3 Tiny non-technical edits to file-format.txt. 2008-01-16 16:33:37 +02:00
Lasse Collin 4e7e54c4c5 Introduced compatibility with systems that have pre-C99 
or no inttypes.h. This is useful when the compiler has
good enough support for C99, but libc headers don't.

Changed liblzma API so that sys/types.h and inttypes.h
have to be #included before #including lzma.h. On systems
that don't have C99 inttypes.h, it's the problem of the
applications to provide the required types and macros
before #including lzma.h.

If lzma.h defined the missing types and macros, it could
conflict with third-party applications whose configure
has detected that the types are missing and defined them
in config.h already. An alternative would have been
introducing lzma_uint32 and similar types, but that would
just be an extra pain on modern systems.
