More often than you may believe.
 
==The power of CrossDev==
 
It was common to use a 16 bit computer like an [[Atari|Atari ST]] to get stronger compression. Today it is possible to get various compressors which are running on a PC platform and produce binary files which can be decompressed on [[Z80]] computers.
 
[[Xyphoes Fantasy]] is a noteable example. The data is compressed and it was generated on an Atari ST.
 
Examples for modern CrossDev compression programs with Z80 decompression routines are
* [[Bitbuster]]
* [[Exomizer]]
* [[MegaLZ]]
* [[Pucrunch]]
* [[ZX7]]
== File compression ==
*[[CrownCruncher|CrownCruncher]] ([[Crown|Crown]])
*[[FlowerCruncher|FlowerCruncher]] ([[Roudoudou|Roudoudou]])
*[[LZ48|LZ48]] ([[Roudoudou|Roudoudou]])
*[[LZ49|LZ49]] ([[Roudoudou|Roudoudou]])
*[[SQ23|SQ23]]
*[[Turbocruncher|Turbocruncher]] ([[Elmar Krieger|Elmar Krieger]])
== File decompression ==
*[[LZ4|LZ4]] ([[Roudoudou|Roudoudou]])
*[[NLarge|NLarge]] ([[FG Brain|FG Brain]])
