-You will need a C++11 compiler and the compression library lzlib installed.
-(gcc 3.3.6 or newer is recommended).
+You will need a C++98 compiler with support for 'long long', and the
+compression library lzlib installed. (gcc 3.3.6 or newer is recommended).
I use gcc 6.1.0 and 3.3.6, but the code should compile with any standards
compliant compiler.
