finally I got around to the beginning of updating kens. There are going to be some wonderful new features in kens.

first off KENS is now using Cmake as a replacement for autotools "configure" scripts.
second, flamewing contributed to the kens project and is now onboard with us, so expect great things ™
flamewing provided a new api for nemesis, kosinski, and enigma compression that he used in his s2ssedit application, and it is now working beautifully. I took the old magus based api and wrapped it around his functions.
third, I am also working on making kens build on all 3 platforms (Mac, Windows, and Linux/Unix)
fourth, expect vb support, gamemaker support, and delphi suport to return along with a new multimedia fusion 2 support, objective c support, and .net compatible binary (will have a check for mono when building that one)
I guess I will now get the flamewing-style streams api working for saxman compression before I begin testing platform checks.

Um, at the risk of sounding incredibly stupid, what is "kens", exactly?

Compression library targeting Sonic games on the Genesis, and any other games that use the same compression algorithms.

Alright. I had guessed that it had something to do with the original Genesis games, but then the bit about gamemaker support threw me off.
