-Lzip divides the distance between any two powers of 2 into 8 equally
-spaced intervals, named "wedges". The dictionary size is calculated by

+The dictionary size is calculated by taking a power of 2 (the base size)
+and substracting from it a fraction between 0/16 and 7/16 of the base
+size.@*
 Bits 4-0 contain the base 2 logarithm of the base size (12 to 29).@*
-Bits 7-5 contain the number of wedges (0 to 7) to substract from the
-base size to obtain the dictionary size.@*
+Bits 7-5 contain the numerator of the fraction (0 to 7) to substract
+from the base size to obtain the dictionary size.@*
 Example: 0xD3 = 2^19 - 6 * 2^15 = 512 KiB - 6 * 32 KiB = 320 KiB@*
 Valid values for dictionary size range from 4 KiB to 512 MiB.
