wow, this place is full of "revolutionnary things"
so i figured i would "think different" by saying it is not.

I just made a file compressor program which seems usefull on "large
files" (>2GB),
or on newest Flash HDD.

http://pc-compression.dnsalias.com/lz4-fast-compressor-for-windows-t95.htm#144

Its main objective is to be ultra-fast, which it seems to be. So
actually you can compress large amount of data in a few seconds.

You can find a 3rd party evaluation here :

As a sidenote, i'm also looking at a generic GUI (obviously for
compressor) which could be used as a front end to this program.
Thanks

Source code? You are using an LZSS variant; I am curious to see your
implementation.
