    HI there,

    has anyone developed encode/decode algoritms to compress/expand ASCII strings and/or graphic data bytes to reduce flash look-up tables dimensions ?

    I'm working around a project which use a 64x128 graphic LCD, so You can understand the problem.

    Hi coordinator,

    beautiful, concise, extremely clear answer, I appreciate the attention, but it was not that my question !

    Evidently you don't have used Your ''lateral mind''.

    My direct question is : is there anybody which could provide me the ''C'' or assembler sources ?

    Thanks for Your attention.

    probably the simplest to implement in a 8bit micro is RLE compression.

    There are numerous C examples on the net which could be easilt adapted to the ST7.

    Hope this helps

    Yes SJO, thanks.

    Waiting to any answer from the forum people, I have already implemented an RLE encode/decode algorithm.

    Respecting a B/W image of 1024 bytes ( LCD 64x128 ), I have gained a compression of about 42%.

    As regards the of Shannon entropic limit, I am fairly satisfied.
