Legend
+ - New program tested
# - DOS program that was run in a Windows98 DOS
box
* - Windows 32bit program (95/98/NT)
B - Best compression
(smallest compressed file)
F - Fastest compression
time
Q - Quickest extraction
time
O - Best overall (smallest
overall score - calculated by adding compress time, extract time,
and time it would take to transfer the compressed file over a 28,800bps
network)
+TAR - means that the test files were stored together in one TAR
file first and then compressed.
