LZFSE
=====

This is a reference C implementation of the LZFSE compressor introduced in the
[Compression library](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Performance/Reference/Compression/index.html) with OS X 10.11 and iOS 9.

LZFSE is a Lempel-Ziv style data compression algorithm using Finite State Entropy coding.
It targets similar compression rates at higher compression and decompression speed compared to deflate using zlib.

Building on OS X
----------------

$ xcodebuild install DSTROOT=/tmp/lzfse.dst

Produces the following files in `/tmp/lzfse.dst`:

usr/local/bin/lzfse command line tool
usr/local/include/lzfse.h LZFSE library header
usr/local/lib/liblzfse.a LZFSE library

Building on Linux
-----------------

Tested on Ubuntu 15.10 with gcc 5.2.1 and clang 3.6.2. Should work on any recent distribution.

$ make install INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp/lzfse.dst/usr/local

Produces the following files in `/tmp/lzfse.dst`:

usr/local/bin/lzfse command line tool
usr/local/include/lzfse.h LZFSE library header
usr/local/lib/liblzfse.a LZFSE library

Building with cmake
-------------------

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make install

Installs the header, library, and command line tool in `/usr/local`.
