Hello,
This is probably out of scope with boost's intended usage pattern, but I'll ask anyhow.
I've got a package of output files that I want to bundle, tarball, gzip, or however I can manage to compress them.
I see there is the zlib usage, but methinks that is more for in-memory compression. Not sure exactly how that translates to folders-/files-oriented compression I am thinking of.
See the iostreams lib's zlib_[de]compressor and filtering streams and streambufs. Also there was a very recent posting with the tag [iostreams] in the subject describing a usage pattern that may be of interest. Jeff
