+Summary
+-------
+This directory contains ASM implementations of the functions
+longest_match() and inflate_fast(), for 64 bits x86 (both AMD64 and Intel EM64t),
+for use with Microsoft Macro Assembler (x64) for AMD64 and Microsoft C++ 64 bits.
+
+gvmat64.asm is written by Gilles Vollant (2005), by using Brian Raiter 686/32 bits
+   assembly optimized version from Jean-loup Gailly original longest_match function
+
+inffasx64.asm and inffas8664.c were written by Chris Anderson, by optimizing
+   original function from Mark Adler
+
+Use instructions
+----------------
+Copy these files into the zlib source directory.
+
+define ASMV and ASMINF in your project. Include inffas8664.c in your source tree,
+and inffasx64.obj and gvmat64.obj as object to link.
+
+
+Build instructions
+------------------
+run bld_64.bat with Microsoft Macro Assembler (x64) for AMD64 (ml64.exe)
+
+ml64.exe is given with Visual Studio 2005, Windows 2003 server DDK
+
+You can get Windows 2003 server DDK with ml64 and cl for AMD64 from 
+  http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/ddk/default.mspx for low price)
