in reply to Compressing a text file using count of continous characters

And by 'characters' I sincerly hope we are talking about only ALPHAs and no NUMERICs.

ALPHANUMERICS works for RLE because every char gets a count. But if you are only doing multiples, you can't have digits in there as part of your character set.
