SCZ is a set of simple, portable, light-weight
file compression and decompression utilities.
Simple compress and decompress subroutines can be
linked and called within applications to compress
or unpack data on the fly. These functions can
also be used through stand-alone utilities. The
initial set of routines implements a lossless
compression algorithm, so restoration and
decompression are perfect.

Changes:
Issues with the SCZ photo image compression utilities reading binary files on some platforms were cleaned up. Unlike the core SCZ functions which implement perfect lossless compression, the image routines apply a lossy method appropriate for images. They achieve high compression ratios with little image degradation.
