[gameprogrammer] Re: Frequency table for standard english for huffman encoding tree

["Alan Wolfe" <atrix2@cox.net>]

hey kevin,

why not build your own?

you could make a program that you fed text files that would keep tallies of
each letter.

or...you could build your huffman table/tree on the fly w/ each file you
compressed and add the tally table as a header to the compressed file.

or of course you could just use zlib nad make gz files.
