  Description     : PAQ open standard maximum compressor (prebuilt levels)

 PAQ is a series of open source data compression archivers that have
 evolved through collaborative development to top rankings on several
 benchmarks measuring compression ratio although at the expense of
 speed and memory usage.

 This package includes program zp -- a ZPAQ archiver -- a proposed
 standard format for highly compressed data that allows new
 compression algorithms to be developed without breaking compatibility
 with older programs.

 Note: zp is the "user friendly" version of archiver. Zp comes
 with 3 prebuilt and optimized compression levels whereas.
