• io/stream.h — stream system {docs}
  • io/stream-stdio.h — C standard IO stream implementation
  • io/stream-mem.h — memory block IO stream implementation
  • io/stream-packbits.h — PackBits compression - fromTIFF
  • io/stream-mtfcomp.h — "move to front" adaptive compression stream - from the bookSmall Memory Software, Chapter 4

• test/txtscr.h — text format 'screen'

• utils/array.h — array utilities
• utils/barith.h — binary arithmetic
• utils/bsearch.h — binary searching arrays

Use CMake, e.g.:

mkdir buildcd buildcmake ..make -j4

EnableBUILD_TESTS, e.g. usingccmake and build. Then invoke DPTLibTest like:

./DPTLibTest -resources <path to DPTLib>

It'll spew a load of test output. If successful you'll see:

++ Tests completed in 0.9909s: 18 of 18 tests passed.
