.
Compress::Zlib is a Perl external module which provides an interface to
the info-zip zlib compression library. zlib is a general purpose
compression library.
.
Some of the features provided by Compress::Zlib include:
.
* in-memory compression and decompression
* read and write gzip (.gz) files directly.
.
IO::Compress::Bunzip2 and IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2 provide a Perl interface
that allows transparent reading and writing bzip2 compressed data to files or
buffers.
.
IO::Compress::Base is the base class for all IO::Compress and IO::Uncompress
modules. It is not intended for direct use in application code. Its sole
purpose is to be sub-classed by IO::Compress modules.
