TOA Compression File Format

This project implements the TOA compression file format, an experimental compression format designed for streaming operation, parallel processing and corruption resilience. The format uses LZMA as the primary compression algorithm with BLAKE3 cryptographic hashing and Reed-Solomon error correction codes.

Specification

The specification of the file format version 1.0 is finished and can be read in the SPECIFICATION.md in the source repository.
