Well... it's a lot of special cases.  Right now it's unreleasable because it infringes copyrights.  For example, there's a conditional in the code that says "if (text == 'full text of this particular NYTimes editorial') { return 'this particular compressed string'; } else if (text == 'full text of this other editorial') { return 'this other compressed string'; } ..." etc, etc.

But I just realized that I could replace all those fulltext comparisons with hash comparisons!  Then there would be no need to have the fulltexts in the code, and I could release the program.  Thanks for helping me think that through.

The other problem is that it's a *lot* of special cases.  I mean, this is a general theoretical property of a certain kind of compression program.  You can achieve spectacular compression rations if you're willing to sacrifice on the side of the source code size of the compression program.

So I guess I'll release it when GitHub installs a few more yottabytes of storage?

Let me know.
