nanozip-re wiki

Detailed reverse-engineering notes and history for nanozip-re — a byte-exact C++17 reconstruction of the NanoZip 0.09a archiver, with no dependency on the original binary at runtime for supported methods.

Start with the README for the project overview, measured decode-coverage summary, build/test instructions, and license. This wiki holds the detail that used to live there:

• Component Status — full per-codec native-decode status, known gaps in detail, and the roadmap to 100% native decode.
• Reverse Engineering Notes — tools, workflow, and the specific findings (addresses, formulas, table contents) discovered along the way.
• Changelog — day-by-day history of every codec's path from "bridges to the original binary" to "byte-exact native", including every bug found and fixed.
