Description

<dcdump> contains dive computer memory dump data.

The memory dump data shall be compressed with bzip2 algorithm and encoded into ASCII using Base64 encoder. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64 for further information, for example.

For example, in Python language memory dump can be encoded with

s = bz2.compress(dumpdata)
encoded = base64.b64encode(s)
                

and such data can be decoded using following instructions

s = base64.b64decode(encoded)
dumpdata = bz2.decompress(s)
