Hello all, I've been searching the web for a few days now without avail so I'd figure I'd give you guys a try although this maybe a bit OT. I basically need a working example of some QIC-122 decompression routine (to avoid reinventing the wheel) - it seems to be loosly based on LZ (de)compression and used in various QIC-data formats such as QIC-113 Working on a damaged backup for a friend - don't bite my head off - it's Win98 MSbackup ... :o( I'm not much of a Linux programmer but I do know my c and asm and perl and whatever so one of you may be able to help me by pointing me to some source code I might use (for ripping apart and porting subfunctions to Win platform). The backup is either damaged or (probably) incomplete ... it's missing some of the header/index parts so MSbackup chickens out with a 'no catalog' error message. I'm hoping to manually set up some decompression routine and pointing to various offsets for starting and see what comes out... Any QIC-122 decompression routines/functions (or maybe even QIC-113 interpretation) out there ???
