CODEC (COmpressor/DECompressor) multiplatform ver.  3.21 is avai-
lable, in shareware mode, for the following operating systems:

     -    AIX (RISC6000)
     -    AS400-IBM
     -    ATT (34/35/36)
     -    DPX/2
     -    HPUX (CISC)
     -    HPUX (RISC)
     -    INDIGO
     -    IRIX
     -    LSX (52.XX)
     -    MVS/XA-ESA/TSO
     -    OS2
     -    OSF1-ALPHA
     -    PC-DOS
     -    POWER-PC (AIX)
     -    SOLARIS-PC
     -    SOLARIS-SUN
     -    SPARC
     -    SUN-OS3
     -    ULTRIX-DIGITAL
     -    UNICOS
     -    UNIX-SCO
     -    VM-CMS/XA-ESA
     -    VMS-ALPHA
     -    VMS-DIGITAL
     -    VSE/ESA
     -    WINDOWS
     -    XENIX-SCO

CODEC allows :

     -    to  compress in one operating system and  decompress in
          another,  interfacing  the physical format of the  file
          between the same or different environments with regards
          to file organization,  record format, record length and
          block size.  For example, it is possible to compress in
          IBM's MVS and to decompress in a PC;

     -    to  execute a highly efficient compression  (from 1  to
          50  times) by means of proprietary algorithms  such  as
          HPBS (High Performance Bit Shrinker);

     -    to create in any platform a file capable of self decom-
          pressing in one of the allowed operating systems ( PC /
          OS2  /  *IX / VMS / etc...) by means of  advanced  self
          exploding features;
