/* decomp16: decompress 16bit compressed files on a 16bit Intel processor
 *
 * Version 1.3 of 25 Mar 92.
 *
 * This was written by John N. White on 6/30/91 and is Public Domain.
 * Patched to run under news by Will Rose, Feb 92.
 * J N White's (earlier) patches added by Will Rose, 20 Feb 92.
 * Unsigned int increment/wrap bug fixed by Will Rose, 24 Mar 92.
 * Argument bug fixed, stdio generalised by Will Rose, 25 Mar 92.
 *
 * decomp16 can use as as little as 512 bytes of stack; since it forks
 * four additional copies, it's probably worth using minimum stack rather
 * than the 8192 byte Minix default.  To reduce memory still further,
 * change BUFSZ below to 256; it is currently set to 1024 for speed.  The
 * minimal decomp16 needs about 280k to run in pipe mode (56k per copy).
 *
 * This program acts as a filter:
 *    decomp16 < compressed_file > decompressed_file
 * The arguments -0 to -4 run only the corresponding pass.
 * Thus:
 *    decomp16 -4 < compressed_file > 3;
 *    decomp16 -3 < 3 > 2;
 *    decomp16 -2 < 2 > 1;
 *    decomp16 -1 < 1 > 0;
 *    decomp16 -0 < 0 > decompressed_file
 * will also work, as will connecting the passes by explicit pipes if
 * there is enough memory to do so.  File name arguments can also be
 * given directly on the command line.
 *
 * Compress uses a modified LZW compression algorithm. A compressed file
 * is a set of indices into a dictionary of strings. The number of bits
 * used to store each index depends on the number of entries currently
 * in the dictionary. If there are between 257 and 512 entries, 9 bits
 * are used. With 513 entries, 10 bits are used, etc. The initial dictionary
 * consists of 0-255 (which are the corresponding chars) and 256 (which
 * is a special CLEAR code). As each index in the compressed file is read,
 * a new entry is added to the dictionary consisting of the current string
 * with the first char of the next string appended. When the dictionary
 * is full, no further entries are added. If a CLEAR code is received,
 * the dictionary will be completely reset. The first two bytes of the
 * compressed file are a magic number, and the third byte indicates the
 * maximum number of bits, and whether the CLEAR code is used (older versions
 * of compress didn't have CLEAR).
 *
 * This program works by forking four more copies of itself. The five
 * programs form a pipeline. Copy 0 writes to stdout, and forks copy 1
 * to supply its input, which in turn forks and reads from copy 2, etc.
 * This sequence is used so that when the program exits, all writes
 * are completed and a program that has exec'd uncompress (such as news)
 * can immediately use the uncompressed data when the wait() call returns.
 *
 * If given a switch -#, where # is a digit from 0 to 4 (example: -2), the
 * program will run as that copy, reading from stdin and writing to stdout.
 * This allows decompressing with very limited RAM because only one of the
 * five passes is in memory at a time.
 *
 * The compressed data is a series of string indices (and a header at
 * the beginning and an occasional CLEAR code). As these indices flow
 * through the pipes, each program decodes the ones it can. The result
 * of each decoding will be indices that the following programs can handle.
 *
 * Each of the 65536 strings in the dictionary is an earlier string with
 * some character added to the end (except for the the 256 predefined
 * single char strings). When new entries are made to the dictionary,
 * the string index part will just be the last index to pass through.
 * But the char part is the first char of the next string, which isn't
 * known yet. So the string can be stored as a pair of indices. When
 * this string is specified, it is converted to this pair of indices,
 * which are flagged so that the first will be decoded in full while
 * the second will be decoded to its first char. The dictionary takes
 * 256k to store (64k strings of 2 indices of 2 bytes each). This is
 * too big for a 64k data segment, so it is divided into 5 equal parts.
 * Copy 4 of the program maintains the high part and copy 0 holds the
 * low part.
