I was reading about LZSS and it sounded like LZ77, or rather what everyone
calls LZ77, and the definition, even on wikipedia [1] it notices that 'Many
popular archivers like PKZip, ARJ, RAR, ZOO, LHarc use LZSS rather than LZ77 as
the primary compression algorithm; the encoding of literal characters and of
length-distance pairs varies'. Concepts of 'literal',
'length-distance pair', don't even exist in Lempel Ziv method nor
in a paper [2]. Even profesor on University of Victoria differentiate between
them [3]. So, in my humble opinion, to do be precise and do justice to
creators of the scheme, namely Storer and Szymanski, in Readme it would be good
to state about LZSS rather than LZ77 as they have as much in common as
Stevenson's locomotive and TGV. ---- 1. Lempel-Ziv-Storer-Szymanski
