==== Description: ====
This project is a bioinformatics library for in-RAM compression of
probabilistic genotypes.  Increasing numbers of application need to store
billions of floating precision values in RAM simultaneously for combinatorial
statistics.  Standard storage methods are not compatible with reasonable RAM
restrictions on most computers.  This library adapts the DEFLATE algorithm to
operate on probabilities with fixed precision, rather than ASCII characters. 
Pattern matching is implemented with a custom suffix tree algorithm with lazy
updating for a sliding window search region.  It provides OO access to stored
probabilities suitable for bioinformatics applications.  The project is
implemented in C++ (with limited, wrapped traditional C).


==== Other Software Required: ====
Optional dependency on zlib: http://www.zlib.net.  License is apparently
custom to project, though compatible with GPL.  Otherwise, the project
exclusively uses GCC/std namespace.


==== Other Comments: ====
This is a candidate initial release for the library.  We're looking to post
this library here so others can come into the project and help, as we publish
the contents of the library in our field.  As this is my first project here, I
apologize for any problems with the distribution.  Any feedback you can
provide, whether or not the project is approved, would be much appreciated.
