      From: quadibloc@invalid.invalid              One other good thing:              After my last major reorganization of the block headers, while there may       be sixteen different header types, now each header begins with one of the       following six bit patterns: 1101, 111001, 1110100111, 1100101001,       110010100001, or 111000101111, none of which begin anything that is not a       header in the basic instruction set without headers.              This means that logic to detect if a block starts with a header ought to       operate reasonably quickly.              John Savard              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
