hello,
does anybody know if there exists a very simple implementation in c
for compressing in a compatible deflate format?

Anything wrong with zlib? Or just gzip?

Kind regards,

Are you looking for something like

?
This compresses using the fixed-huffman deflate method.

Absolutely nothing wrong with zlib. I just need a simpler
implementation or an idea for a simpler implementation (with less
dynamic memory usage) than zlib for compressing data.

Thank you, it seems to be valid for my needs. Do you know which could
be the ram requested if I only compress data,without creating
zip-compatible archive and without using I/O routines?

thank you very much
