Binary package “wzip” in ubuntu xenial

Lossy compression and denoising

 The program wzip is a preprocessor for LOSSY data compression.
 A sequence of ascii floating-point numbers is transformed into a sequence
 of small integers ready for effective compression with e.g. gzip.
 The program can also be used for effective but time consuming denoising
 of measurement data. Wzip was originally written for the processing of
 EDX-linescans.
