  712: - don't use special fcalloc for 32 bit Borland C++
  713: - use STDC instead of __GO32__ to avoid redeclaring exit, calloc, etc...
  714: - use Z_BINARY instead of BINARY
  715: - document that gzclose after gzdopen will close the file
  716: - allow "a" as mode in gzopen.
  717: - fix error checking in gzread
  718: - allow skipping .gz extra-field on pipes
  719: - added reference to Perl interface in README
  720: - put the crc table in FAR data (I dislike more and more the medium model :)
  721: - added get_crc_table
  722: - added a dimension to all arrays (Borland C can't count).
  723: - workaround Borland C bug in declaration of inflate_codes_new & inflate_fast
  724: - guard against multiple inclusion of *.h (for precompiled header on Mac)
  725: - Watcom C pretends to be Microsoft C small model even in 32 bit mode.
  726: - don't use unsized arrays to avoid silly warnings by Visual C++:
  727:      warning C4746: 'inflate_mask' : unsized array treated as  '__far'
  728:      (what's wrong with far data in far model?).
  729: - define enum out of inflate_blocks_state to allow compilation with C++
  730: 
  731: Changes in 0.95 (16 Aug 95)
  732: - fix MSDOS small and medium model (now easier to adapt to any compiler)
  733: - inlined send_bits
  734: - fix the final (:-) bug for deflate with flush (output was correct but
  735:   not completely flushed in rare occasions).
  736: - default window size is same for compression and decompression
  737:   (it's now sufficient to set MAX_WBITS in zconf.h).
  738: - voidp -> voidpf and voidnp -> voidp (for consistency with other
  739:   typedefs and because voidnp was not near in large model).
  740: 
  741: Changes in 0.94 (13 Aug 95)
  742: - support MSDOS medium model
  743: - fix deflate with flush (could sometimes generate bad output)
  744: - fix deflateReset (zlib header was incorrectly suppressed)
  745: - added support for VMS
  746: - allow a compression level in gzopen()
  747: - gzflush now calls fflush
  748: - For deflate with flush, flush even if no more input is provided.
  749: - rename libgz.a as libz.a
  750: - avoid complex expression in infcodes.c triggering Turbo C bug
  751: - work around a problem with gcc on Alpha (in INSERT_STRING)
  752: - don't use inline functions (problem with some gcc versions)
  753: - allow renaming of Byte, uInt, etc... with #define.
  754: - avoid warning about (unused) pointer before start of array in deflate.c
  755: - avoid various warnings in gzio.c, example.c, infblock.c, adler32.c, zutil.c
  756: - avoid reserved word 'new' in trees.c
  757: 
  758: Changes in 0.93 (25 June 95)
  759: - temporarily disable inline functions
  760: - make deflate deterministic
  761: - give enough lookahead for PARTIAL_FLUSH
  762: - Set binary mode for stdin/stdout in minigzip.c for OS/2
  763: - don't even use signed char in inflate (not portable enough)
  764: - fix inflate memory leak for segmented architectures
  765: 
  766: Changes in 0.92 (3 May 95)
  767: - don't assume that char is signed (problem on SGI)
  768: - Clear bit buffer when starting a stored block
  769: - no memcpy on Pyramid
  770: - suppressed inftest.c
  771: - optimized fill_window, put longest_match inline for gcc
  772: - optimized inflate on stored blocks.
  773: - untabify all sources to simplify patches
  774: 
  775: Changes in 0.91 (2 May 95)
  776: - Default MEM_LEVEL is 8 (not 9 for Unix) as documented in zlib.h
  777: - Document the memory requirements in zconf.h
  778: - added "make install"
  779: - fix sync search logic in inflateSync
  780: - deflate(Z_FULL_FLUSH) now works even if output buffer too short
  781: - after inflateSync, don't scare people with just "lo world"
  782: - added support for DJGPP
  783: 
  784: Changes in 0.9 (1 May 95)
  785: - don't assume that zalloc clears the allocated memory (the TurboC bug
  786:   was Mark's bug after all :)
  787: - let again gzread copy uncompressed data unchanged (was working in 0.71)
  788: - deflate(Z_FULL_FLUSH), inflateReset and inflateSync are now fully implemented
  789: - added a test of inflateSync in example.c
  790: - moved MAX_WBITS to zconf.h because users might want to change that.
  791: - document explicitly that zalloc(64K) on MSDOS must return a normalized
  792:   pointer (zero offset)
  793: - added Makefiles for Microsoft C, Turbo C, Borland C++
  794: - faster crc32()
  795: 
  796: Changes in 0.8 (29 April 95)
  797: - added fast inflate (inffast.c)
  798: - deflate(Z_FINISH) now returns Z_STREAM_END when done. Warning: this
  799:   is incompatible with previous versions of zlib which returned Z_OK.
  800: - work around a TurboC compiler bug (bad code for b << 0, see infutil.h)
  801:   (actually that was not a compiler bug, see 0.81 above)
  802: - gzread no longer reads one extra byte in certain cases
  803: - In gzio destroy(), don't reference a freed structure
  804: - avoid many warnings for MSDOS
  805: - avoid the ERROR symbol which is used by MS Windows
  806: 
  807: Changes in 0.71 (14 April 95)
  808: - Fixed more MSDOS compilation problems :( There is still a bug with
  809:   TurboC large model.
  810: 
  811: Changes in 0.7 (14 April 95)
  812: - Added full inflate support.
  813: - Simplified the crc32() interface. The pre- and post-conditioning
  814:   (one's complement) is now done inside crc32(). WARNING: this is
  815:   incompatible with previous versions; see zlib.h for the new usage.
  816: 
  817: Changes in 0.61 (12 April 95)
  818: - workaround for a bug in TurboC. example and minigzip now work on MSDOS.
  819: 
  820: Changes in 0.6 (11 April 95)
  821: - added minigzip.c
  822: - added gzdopen to reopen a file descriptor as gzFile

  824: - fixed bug in gzread (don't read crc as data)
  825: - fixed bug in destroy (gzio.c) (don't return Z_STREAM_END for gzclose).
  826: - don't allocate big arrays in the stack (for MSDOS)
  827: - fix some MSDOS compilation problems
  828: 
  829: Changes in 0.5:
  830: - do real compression in deflate.c. Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH is supported but
  831:   not yet Z_FULL_FLUSH.
  832: - support decompression but only in a single step (forced Z_FINISH)
  833: - added opaque object for zalloc and zfree.
  834: - added deflateReset and inflateReset
  835: - added a variable zlib_version for consistency checking.
  836: - renamed the 'filter' parameter of deflateInit2 as 'strategy'.
  837:   Added Z_FILTERED and Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY constants.
  838: 
  839: Changes in 0.4:
  840: - avoid "zip" everywhere, use zlib instead of ziplib.
  841: - suppress Z_BLOCK_FLUSH, interpret Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH as block flush
  842:   if compression method == 8.
  843: - added adler32 and crc32
  844: - renamed deflateOptions as deflateInit2, call one or the other but not both
  845: - added the method parameter for deflateInit2.
  846: - added inflateInit2
  847: - simplied considerably deflateInit and inflateInit by not supporting
  848:   user-provided history buffer. This is supported only in deflateInit2
  849:   and inflateInit2.
  850: 
  851: Changes in 0.3:
  852: - prefix all macro names with Z_
  853: - use Z_FINISH instead of deflateEnd to finish compression.
  854: - added Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY
  855: - added gzerror()
