SMS Compressing
Lovely HelloO!
I`m trying to develop an application that Zips SMS Text.
In other words 2 side of communication have to install this application on their mobile phone and the zipper application zips the text
Text message will be zip on sending and unzips on receiving.
Do you have any idea about this?
Is there any algorithm or method to implement?
best regards..

Zipping such a small text is fairly useless. First of all, zip is binary, so you'll need to send a binary sms, leaving you with only 140 bytes to send. Zip also has some overhead, so for that little data, you'll have no advantage in this kind of compression.
Best way to do it is to use a custom compression scheme using a fixed library that you don't need to send over every time.
