Transparent uncompressed IO #22

Closed kdm9 closed 7 years ago

kdm9 commented 8 years ago

Hi all,

In the zlib C API and GZip.jl it is possible to open an uncompressed file using the same data structures as a compressed file. This allows one to transparently accept either uncompressed or gzipped data. I haven't been able to do this with Libz.jl. If this is possible, let me know and I will document it somewhere. Otherwise, could I please request this feature?

Cheers, K
