Dear all,

Now that I am doing changes to lzip's output, I was wondering how useful does people find the "bits/byte" value, and if it wouldn't be better to show the inverse compression ratio (compressed/decompressed) instead.

I mean, what do you think about changing this

  vv52_new.log.lz: 15.329:1,  0.522 bits/byte, 93.48% saved.  ok

to this

  vv52_new.log.lz: 15.329:1,  0.065 ratio, 93.48% saved.  ok

or even to this?

  vv52_new.log.lz: 15.329:1,  6.52% ratio, 93.48% saved.  ok


Thanks in advance,
Antonio.
