ZX0-Java

ZX0-Java is a multi-thread implementation of the ZX0 data compressor in Java.

Requirements

To run this compressor, you must have installed Java 8 or later.

Usage

To compress a file such as "Cobra.scr", use the command-line compressor as follows:

java -jar zx0.jar Cobra.scr

Java 8 memory allocation is limited to (at most) 1Gb by default. You can use parameter "-Xmx" to increase maximum memory allocation, for instance:

java -Xmx2G -jar zx0.jar Cobra.scr

This compressor uses 4 threads by default. You can use parameter "-p" to specify a different number of threads, for instance:

java -jar zx0.jar -p2 Cobra.scr

All other parameters work exactly like the original version. Check the official ZX0 page for further details.
