Thanks for the suggestion, Aku

I downloaded the bzip2 sources, compiled bzip2.c to
bz2.so, and tried using that file in place of the one
included with your library.  I still get the same
error message... "bzopen not found".

I'll keep fiddling with the library and see if I can
figure out what the problem is.

Your efforts are appreciated,
Ken Rhodes
