LZO is a portable lossless data compression library written in ANSI C. It offers pretty fast compression and very fast decompression. Decompression requires no memory.
In addition there are slower compression levels achieving a quite competitive compression ratio while still decompressing at this very high speed.
Python is an interpreted object-oriented programming language, and is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Java or Scheme. To find out more, point your browser to https://www.python.org/ .
Python-LZO provides Python bindings for LZO, i.e. you can access the LZO library from your Python scripts thereby compressing ordinary Python strings.
Python-LZO comes with built-in documentation which is accessible
using lzo.__doc__' and
lzo.func__doc__'. See "Chapter 3: Data Model"
in the Python Reference Manual for more information.
Additionally you should read the docs and study the example programs that ship with the LZO library. Really.
The windows version is untested. If you do test it, please let me know the results.
