Changes to DACT between r0 and r1
'''Dynamic Adaptive Compression Tool'''
(blank line)
DACT started out as an idea for a science fair project on [Arbitrary Data Compression] (which we later decided was impossible). While working on that project, I thought about compressing different types of files with different algorithms (basing the algorithm used on the type of file), but using just 1 algorithm for the entire file. But then I thought about splitting the file into blocks and compressing each block with whatever algorithm works best for it. And thus DACT was born.

Since then, DACT has had many features added to it including:
* Network access;
* Version checking;
* Automatic upgrade;
* Encryption; and
* The ability to handle gzip and bzip2 files
