Visual Patch is a software development tool for building software patches and software updates. This binary patch maker features DeltaMAX data compression for faster software deployment and integration with software installation and patch management tools from vendors like Installshield,...

rzip is a compression program, similar in functionality to bzip2 or gzip, but able to take advantage long distance redundencies in files, which can sometimes allow rzip to produce much better compression ratios than other programs. The original idea behind rzip is described in my PhD thesis...

BlueZip is a cross-platform compression utility..

Humanzip is a compression program that operates on text files. Unlike most compression algorithms, its output is human readable. Indeed, it is explictly meant to be read by humans and might even be easier to read than the original. This application compresses files by looking for common strings...

La is a Lossless Audio compression program. That is, in contrast to formats such as mp3, La program reduces the size of music without affecting the quality, as the uncompressed signal is exactly identical to the original. However, the compression ratio is thus far lower than that for .mp3 files...
