+.TH ZLIB 3 "30 December 2004"
+.SH NAME
+zlib \- compression/decompression library
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+[see
+.I zlib.h
+for full description]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I zlib
+library is a general purpose data compression library.
+The code is thread safe.
+It provides in-memory compression and decompression functions,
+including integrity checks of the uncompressed data.
+This version of the library supports only one compression method (deflation)
+but other algorithms will be added later
+and will have the same stream interface.
+.LP
+Compression can be done in a single step if the buffers are large enough
+(for example if an input file is mmap'ed),
+or can be done by repeated calls of the compression function.
+In the latter case,
+the application must provide more input and/or consume the output
+(providing more output space) before each call.
+.LP
+The library also supports reading and writing files in
+.IR gzip (1)
+(.gz) format
+with an interface similar to that of stdio.
+.LP
+The library does not install any signal handler.
+The decoder checks the consistency of the compressed data,
+so the library should never crash even in case of corrupted input.
+.LP
+All functions of the compression library are documented in the file
+.IR zlib.h .
+The distribution source includes examples of use of the library
+in the files
+.I example.c
+and
+.IR minigzip.c .
+.LP
+Changes to this version are documented in the file
+.I ChangeLog
+that accompanies the source,
+and are concerned primarily with bug fixes and portability enhancements.
+.LP
+A Java implementation of
+.I zlib
+is available in the Java Development Kit 1.1:

+.LP
+A Perl interface to
+.IR zlib ,
+written by Paul Marquess (pmqs@cpan.org),
+is available at CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) sites,
+including:
