pybcj is a bcj filter library In data compression, BCJ, short for Branch-Call-Jump, refers to a technique that improves the compression of machine code of executable binaries by replacing relative branch addresses with absolute ones. This allows a LZMA compressor to identify duplicate targets and archive higher compression rate. BCJ is used in 7-zip compression utility as default filter for executable binaries. pybcj is a python bindings with BCJ implementation by C language. The C codes are derived from p7zip, portable 7-zip implementation.
