Following the Huffman encoder posted here yesterday, here come the always
useful Huffman decoder.
$/=$\;($l,$_)=unpack'sB*',<>;s/..//;r($&);$r=join'|',sort{$0{$b}cmp$0{
+$a}}keys
%0;$_=substr$_,0,$l;s/$r/$0{$&}/g;sub r{@_=split//,pop;for$i(0,1){if($
+_[$i]){s
/.{8}//s;$0{$p.$i}=pack'b8',$&}else{local$p=$p.$i;s/..//;r($&)}}}print
It is much shorter (229 bytes in Un*x), and as you will see, not much documented.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
