[Kexis-announce] Kexis 0.1.4 released!

[Wayde M. <wm...@ra...>]

New Compressor which is tighter. It uses more history to determine optimum K
size. Its setable. Also a new predictor that doesnt preform as well as i thought
it would. It calculated the optimum prediictor based on what the optimum
predictor was on the last value, then uses that. Its not as good as a typical straight
2nd Order predictor.

NOTE: there was a small bug in the file format of 0.1.3 and before. This is
fixed in 0.1.4. However you MUST decompress any kexis files with 0.1.3 and
re-encode them with 0.1.4. Not only will they be smaller, they wont be buggy anymore.
:P

Btw, Kexis is now approaching shorten in file size. In fact, it beats it with a
shortne block size of 256, and a order of 10. You can manually adjust shorten
to still slightly edge out kexis though.
