_LZW REVISITED_
by Shawn M. Regan


[LISTING ONE]

/* Basic LZW Data Compression program published in DDJ October 1989 issue.
 * Original Author: Mark R. Nelson
 * Updated by: Shawn M. Regan, January 1990
 * Added: - Method to clear table when compression ratio degrades
 *        - Self adjusting code size capability (up to 14 bits)
 * Updated functions are marked with "MODIFIED". main() has been updated also
 * Compile with -ml (large model) for MAX_BITS == 14 only
