README
This crate is a Rust port of Plan9's whack compression scheme as used within the venti storage system. Original authors unknown, C source came via Russ Cox and the 9fans/plan9port repository.
Use the unwhack function to decompress, and whackblock to compress.
A whack function also exists if you want to control some parameters
of compression, or want to collect statistics.
