zlibbers,

I have written a page describing the basic usage of zlib's deflate() 
and inflate() functions, which you can find here:

    http://zlib.net/zlib_how.html

It is also linked from the main zlib page.  This is in response to many 
queries about how to use zlib, people wondering why their buggy program 
using zlib isn't working, and folk wondering whether Z_BUF_ERROR is 
really an error or not.  If any of you would like to, please read the 
page and provide comments.  Thanks.
