The previous version available at http://www.xmission.com/~turkanis/iostreams/.

I've since made some major simplifications and improvements, and am scrambing to update the docs. It now contains support for memory-mapped files (from Craig Henderson) and for compression and decompression in the zlib, gzip and bzip2 formats.

The thing I wanted recently was an "offset streambuf", an adapter for another streambuf that presents an "offset view" (i.e. with respect to seeking) of the underlying streambuf. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
