I just came up with a lossless text compression algorithm that will revolutionize communication. It’s a simple pattern substitution algorithm that is easy to implement, doesn’t require decompression, and yet is lossless! Example plaintext and compressed text:

“Colour” -> “Color” 16.6% compression (for free with no loss of information!)

“Honour” -> “Honor” 16.6%

“Harbour” -> “Harbor” 14.3%

and so on…
