About obzip:
File archiver (like zip) using bzip2 compression with library interface and code written in Oberon-2.

The main reason for writing obzip was not to compete with zip
but to show an example use of the Oberon-2 interface to the bzip2
library and the use of a compression channel which rides on top of
a binary writer channel. Basically a channel is similar to a Unix
pipe or filter concept except channels perform compile-time type
checking and thus are safer than the pipe or filter. Channels also
have attached methods which make them much more intelligent than
pipes or filters.

Please also visit the application web site for the web-browsable
source code in Oberon-2. Variables, procedures, and methods in the
source can be browsed to see how a typical Oberon-2 application is
created. This same source compiles on any system which uses the
oo2c compiler.

People are encouraged to modify the source and add their own
extensions. I would appreciate hearing about any additions so they
can be incorporated into the next "official" release.
