Rather than introducing a new method, why not just add an optional maxlen argument to .decompress(). I think the changes would be: * add 'int maxlen=-1;' * add "...\|i" ... ,&maxlen to the argument parsing * if maxlen != -1, length = maxlen else length = DEFAULTALLOC; * Add '&& maxlen==-1' to the while loop. (Use the current CVS; I just checked in a patch rearranging the zlib module a bit.) Do you want to make those changes and resubmit the patch?
