First Release

Status

Performs both compression and decompression. Compression is fine in terms of speed, even with the naive implementation of priority queue. Decompression is very slow. Code has some code duplication, redundancies and cases of bad coding. There are some issues with the user interface (edge cases not handled).

Priorities for next release

1. Faster decompression.
2. Refactor the interface code.
3. Use better data structures and algorithms where it matters.
4. Perform better and comprehensive tests on the underlying libraries.
