It was developed by John Lauro.<br /> <br /> Archive member files may use [[Run-length encoding|RLE compression]], or no compression.<br /> <br /> Some versions of TC have their own name, such as '''TC3''', '''TC31''', '''TC12'''.<br /> <br /> == Identification ==<br /> Files start with byte &lt;code&gt;0x01&lt;/code&gt; (sequence number), and have &lt;code&gt;0x01&lt;/code&gt; (format version) at offset 14.
