This package implements a general purpose Reed-Solomon encoding and decoding facility. See the rs.3 man page for details. To install, simply do the following after extracting this tarball into an empty directory: ./configure make make install The command "make test" runs a battery of encode/decode tests using a variety of RS codes using random data and random errors. Each test should pass with an "OK"; if any fail, please let me know so I can track down the problem.
