Incidentally, PC BIOSes used the LZ* family of compression algorithms too. LZSS (also known as LZ12/4 for its allocation of indicator word bits), LZARI, LZHUF (which lead to the famous LHA/LZH, and then Deflate/Zlib, ZIP, etc.), and LZINT were all commonly encountered. Apparently Phoenix had a patent on it: https://patents.google.com/patent/US5836013A/en (search for LZSS) Despite the relative obscurity of Okumura's code, it has definitely had a huge impact. |
