- * Reads all or part of a compressed WIM resource.
+ *                            Compressed resources
  *
- * Returns zero on success, nonzero on failure.
+ * A compressed resource in a WIM consists of a number of consecutive LZX or
+ * XPRESS-compressed chunks, each of which decompresses to 32768 bytes of data,
+ * except possibly the last, which always decompresses to any remaining bytes.
+ * In addition, immediately before the chunks, a table (the "chunk table")
+ * provides the offset, in bytes relative to the end of the chunk table, of the
+ * start of each compressed chunk, except for the first chunk which is omitted
+ * as it always has an offset of 0.  Therefore, a compressed resource with N
+ * chunks will have a chunk table with N - 1 entries.
+ *
+ * Additional information:
+ *
+ * - Entries in the chunk table are 4 bytes each, except if the uncompressed
+ *   size of the resource is greater than 4 GiB, in which case the entries in
+ *   the chunk table are 8 bytes each.  In either case, the entries are unsigned
+ *   little-endian integers.
+ *
+ * - The chunk table is included in the compressed size of the resource provided
+ *   in the corresponding entry in the WIM's stream lookup table.
+ *
+ * - The compressed size of a chunk is never greater than the uncompressed size.
+ *   From the compressor's point of view, chunks that would have compressed to a
+ *   size greater than or equal to their original size are in fact stored
+ *   uncompressed.  From the decompresser's point of view, chunks with
+ *   compressed size equal to their uncompressed size are in fact uncompressed.
+ *
+ * Furthermore, wimlib supports its own "pipable" WIM format, and for this the
+ * structure of compressed resources was modified to allow piped reading and
+ * writing.  To make sequential writing possible, the chunk table is placed
+ * after the chunks rather than before the chunks, and to make sequential
+ * reading possible, each chunk is prefixed with a 4-byte header giving its
+ * compressed size as a 32-bit, unsigned, little-endian integer (less than or
+ * equal to 32768).  Otherwise the details are the same.
