Only works for single files, and is slooooooow. And when I say slow, I mean really slow. And the compression rate? Not so good, in fact, the result is larger than the original. But hey, it works! And it's using freaking PI!!!

Install

First of all, you will need to install rust.

On OS X you can install using homebrew.

$ brew install rust

Or you can use the lovely rustup tool.

Then it's just a matter of cloning and building.

$ git clone http://code.aceofba.se/logaritmisk/piar.git
$ cd piar
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/piar --help

Usage

Compress

$ piar -c my_file.txt my_file.pi

Decompress

$ piar -d my_file.pi my_file.txt
