Native LZO1X implementation in Golang
This code has been written using the original LZO1X source code as a reference, to study and understand the algorithms. Both the LZO1X-1 and LZO1X-999 algorithms are implemented. These are the most popular of the whole LZO suite of algorithms.
Being a straightforward port of the original source code, it shares the same license (GPLv2) as I can't possibly claim any copyright on it.
I plan to eventually reimplement LZO1X-1 from scratch. At that point, I will be also changing license.
