  • qoi compression format

    From none) (albert@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 26 15:05:37 2022
    A hacker with no previous knowledge of compression has designed
    a graphic compression that is almost as good as png lossless
    compression, but much faster.
    The specification -- as might be expected -- is small and fits on
    one page.

    A c-implementation runs about 300 lines.
    It would be nice if a Forth implementation comes available.

    A nobody can do more in less time than a team of experts in the field?
    Sounds like Forth a very long time ago :)
