  Description     : error/erasure code system guarding data integrity

 Xpar is an error/erasure code system guarding data integrity. In joint mode
 generates a slightly inflated (by about 12%) parity-guarded file from a given
 data file. Such a file can be recovered as long as no more than about 6.2% of
 the data is corrupted. Xpar internally uses a (255,223)-RS code over an 8-bit
 Galois field.
