Lempel-Ziv-Welch compression is patented. Does your site mention that Unisys
(http://www.unisys.com) will own United States patent 4,558,302 on LZW
compression until at least the year 2003, or that Unisys won't let open
source software use LZW compression, or that the Free Software Foundation
(http://www.gnu.org) is boycotting GIF because GIF uses LZW compression and
Unisys is not nice to copylefters who use the GNU General Public License?

The popular puzzle game DOSArena Tetanus contains a good floodfill
algorithm. Download the source code
http://come.to/yerrick
It's all GPL, so you'll be able to use my code in anything else that's GPL.

Oh, by the way, iname is the biggest spam generator. When I was
trueliar AT iname DOT com, I got so much "Download hardcore!" and "Make free money
in the stock market!" that I just gave up and got an account at Hotmail.
