// HtPack.h
//
// HtPack: Compress and uncompress data in e.g. simple structures.
//	   The structure must have the layout defined in the ABI;
//	   the layout the compiler generates.
//
//         Much like the pack()/unpack() function pair in perl, but
//         compressing, not "packing into a binary structure".
//
//         Note that the contents of the returned "String" is not
//         necessarily aligned to allow using it as a struct.
//
