+ZLIB DATA COMPRESSION LIBRARY
+
+zlib 1.2.11 is a general purpose data compression library.  All the code is
+thread safe.  The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs
+(Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files
+http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1950 (zlib format), rfc1951 (deflate format) and
+rfc1952 (gzip format).
+
+All functions of the compression library are documented in the file zlib.h
+(volunteer to write man pages welcome, contact zlib@gzip.org).  A usage example
+of the library is given in the file test/example.c which also tests that
+the library is working correctly.  Another example is given in the file
+test/minigzip.c.  The compression library itself is composed of all source
+files in the root directory.
+
+To compile all files and run the test program, follow the instructions given at
+the top of Makefile.in.  In short "./configure; make test", and if that goes
+well, "make install" should work for most flavors of Unix.  For Windows, use
+one of the special makefiles in win32/ or contrib/vstudio/ .  For VMS, use
+make_vms.com.
+
+Questions about zlib should be sent to <zlib@gzip.org>, or to Gilles Vollant
+<info@winimage.com> for the Windows DLL version.  The zlib home page is
+http://zlib.net/ .  Before reporting a problem, please check this site to
+verify that you have the latest version of zlib; otherwise get the latest
+version and check whether the problem still exists or not.
+
+PLEASE read the zlib FAQ http://zlib.net/zlib_faq.html before asking for help.
+
+Mark Nelson <markn@ieee.org> wrote an article about zlib for the Jan.  1997
+issue of Dr.  Dobb's Journal; a copy of the article is available at
+http://marknelson.us/1997/01/01/zlib-engine/ .
+
+The changes made in version 1.2.11 are documented in the file ChangeLog.
+
+Unsupported third party contributions are provided in directory contrib/ .
+
+zlib is available in Java using the java.util.zip package, documented at
+http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/compression/ .
+
+A Perl interface to zlib written by Paul Marquess <pmqs@cpan.org> is available
+at CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) sites, including
+http://search.cpan.org/~pmqs/IO-Compress-Zlib/ .
+
+A Python interface to zlib written by A.M. Kuchling <amk@amk.ca> is
+available in Python 1.5 and later versions, see
+http://docs.python.org/library/zlib.html .
+
+zlib is built into tcl: http://wiki.tcl.tk/4610 .
+
+An experimental package to read and write files in .zip format, written on top
+of zlib by Gilles Vollant <info@winimage.com>, is available in the
+contrib/minizip directory of zlib.
+
+
+Notes for some targets:
+
+- For Windows DLL versions, please see win32/DLL_FAQ.txt
+
+- For 64-bit Irix, deflate.c must be compiled without any optimization. With
+  -O, one libpng test fails. The test works in 32 bit mode (with the -n32
+  compiler flag). The compiler bug has been reported to SGI.
+
+- zlib doesn't work with gcc 2.6.3 on a DEC 3000/300LX under OSF/1 2.1 it works
+  when compiled with cc.
+
+- On Digital Unix 4.0D (formely OSF/1) on AlphaServer, the cc option -std1 is
+  necessary to get gzprintf working correctly. This is done by configure.
+
+- zlib doesn't work on HP-UX 9.05 with some versions of /bin/cc. It works with
+  other compilers. Use "make test" to check your compiler.
+
+- gzdopen is not supported on RISCOS or BEOS.
+
+- For PalmOs, see http://palmzlib.sourceforge.net/

+Acknowledgments:
+
+  The deflate format used by zlib was defined by Phil Katz.  The deflate and
+  zlib specifications were written by L.  Peter Deutsch.  Thanks to all the
+  people who reported problems and suggested various improvements in zlib; they
+  are too numerous to cite here.
