compression and decompression library or B4PPC Code

[Louis]

Hi.
Does anyone know of a data compression and decompression library, or even just some simple Basic4ppc code I can use to compress and decompress a file for use in a dictionary program? I want to build a dictionary without consuming too much space, and compress it so it cannot be edited by just anyone, and possibly has a fast hash to lookup the words, definitions, ETC. without taking up too much time. Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if you only know of web sites that explains algorithms or something to compress any type of data. Thanks.
