-.TH ZLIB 3 "11 March 2002"
-.SH NAME
-zlib \- compression/decompression library
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-[see
-.I zlib.h
-for full description]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.I zlib
-library is a general purpose data compression library.
-The code is thread safe.
-It provides in-memory compression and decompression functions,
-including integrity checks of the uncompressed data.
-This version of the library supports only one compression method (deflation)
-but other algorithms will be added later and will have the same stream interface.
-.LP
-Compression can be done in a single step if the buffers are large enough
-(for example if an input file is mmap'ed),
-or can be done by repeated calls of the compression function.
-In the latter case,
-the application must provide more input and/or consume the output
-(providing more output space) before each call.
-.LP
-The library also supports reading and writing files in
-.I gzip
-(.gz) format
-with an interface similar to that of stdio.
-.LP
-The library does not install any signal handler. The decoder checks
-the consistency of the compressed data, so the library should never
-crash even in case of corrupted input.
-.LP
-All functions of the compression library are documented in the file
-.IR zlib.h.
-The distribution source includes examples of use of the library
-the files
-.I example.c
-and
-.IR minigzip.c .
-.LP
-A Java implementation of
-.IR zlib
-is available in the Java Development Kit 1.1
