XZip v1.1
->- Info
XZip is an interface for a huffman compression engine named XAlgo. In
fact you can consider it as a GUI compression program. It provides a good
ratio depending on the file type and is quite fast de/compressing.
->- Requirements
A Ti-83(a Ti-83+ port will soon be done)
About 2100 bytes free mem to install.
From 1024 to 2112 bytes plus the size of the program depending if your
decompressing or compressing.
->- Keys
[Up]/[Down] Navigate
[Right] Next screen
[Enter] De/compress
Any other key quits, chose yours!
->- Extra notes
XZip *MUST* be loaded before any other programs to de/compress, this is
due to a particularity in Ice as well as Ion(same loader).
XZip is not fool-proof, that means do not press [2nd]+[On] or let your
calc APD while running it.
You can load XZip with a program such as ZASMLOAD.
->- Troubleshooting
The XAlgo compression motor intercepts most errors, however some may
oblige you to reset your calc:
#Err: IO
This shouldn't happen, if it does then you haven't loader XZip correctly
#Err: Memory
Nothing bad, you just need a bit more memory to de/compress.
#Err: Unexpected
If this happens, then please contact me.
#Negative ratio
The compressed file is larger than the original.
#Err: Fatal
You've probably guessed what that means, press [2nd]+[On] if you don't
want your calc to be reset, but backup immediatly.
->- Bugs?
Normally, if I've worked well, there shouldn't be any. Nevertheless, if
you find one, please report it to me at x1cygnus@online.fr but please
take the time to read this document fully before.

->- Credits
I must thank Jimmy Mardel for his huffman.exe, I studied it's output
which abled me to greatly improuve XAlgo.
