A hacker with no previous knowledge of compression has designed
a graphic compression that is almost as good as png lossless
compression, but much faster.
The specification -- as might be expected -- is small and fits on
one page.

A c-implementation runs about 300 lines.
It would be nice if a Forth implementation comes available.

A nobody can do more in less time than a team of experts in the field?
Sounds like Forth a very long time ago :)
