README - consider adding supported page compression overview #63
Description
Given that the aff format supports different compression methods:
- zlib/deflate (AF_PAGE_COMP_ALG_ZLIB)
- bzip or bzip2 (AF_PAGE_COMP_ALG_BZIP), which does not appear to be implemented?
- lzma (AF_PAGE_COMP_ALG_LZMA)
Please add a small section to README which of these are/are not supported by the library.

Maybe change the comment in
AFFLIBv3/include/afflib/afflib.h
Line 455 in f35df6c
To something in line of: originally reserved for bzip2 compression but never implemented.

Sounds good. Feel free to provide a PR if you can.
joachimmetz commentedon Oct 26, 2026
Works for me I'll combine the other issues into 1 PR.
joachimmetz commentedon Oct 26, 2026
@sshock also do you know if lzma is LZMA1, LZMA2 or both?

Changes in #65 PTAL

Pretty sure it's just LZMA1.
joachimmetz commentedon Oct 28, 2026
Great, that matches my observations from AFF test files (in the sense that I've only seen LZMA1). I've updated that in the README as well.
