Hell yeah some fpc stuff showing its moves. Devs even put together an lpk to load up -bravo! Look for more of this stuff in the future as companies look for alternatives to corporate commodity programming and dbs tethered to major cloud resources. I have a major FPC effort going on right now that I hope to be able to offer on four platforms: browser, win, linux, and mac.

I wrote a similar general purpose pack way back in the early 90's in TopSpeed Modula-2 and run from the command line. Needed to span multiple disks and self launch. Algorithm was fast, but not nearly the same compression ratios. Wore out Mark Nelson's classic, "The Data Compression Book" along the way.
