README

        
this is a simple wrapper around your systems zlib.

it has an interface like nim's `File`.

```Nim

var gz: GZFile

if not gz.open(f, bufsize=16384):

  quit "couldn't open file"

echo gz.tell

var line:string

while gz.readLine(line):

  echo line

echo gz.error

echo gz.tell

gz.close

```

and writing:

```Nim

var wgz: GZFile

if not wgz.open(f, "w6"):

  quit "couldn't open file"

for i in 0..10:

  wgz.write("hello ", "big ")

  wgz.write_line("world")

wgz.close

```

this works for both gzipped and regular files
