+- __HAVE_LZ4__ : `zstd` can compress and decompress files in `.lz4` formats.
+  This is ordered through commands `--format=lz4`.
+  Alternatively, symlinks named `lz4`, or `unlz4` will mimic intended behavior.
+  `.lz4` support is automatically enabled when `lz4` library is detected at build time.
+  It's possible to disable `.lz4` support, by setting HAVE_LZ4=0 .
+  Example : make zstd HAVE_LZ4=0
+  It's also possible to force compilation with lz4 support, using HAVE_LZ4=1.

 - __ZSTD_LEGACY_SUPPORT__ : `zstd` can decompress files compressed by older versions of `zstd`.
   Starting v0.8.0, all versions of `zstd` produce frames compliant with the [specification](../doc/zstd_compression_format.md), and are therefore compatible.
   But older versions (< v0.8.0) produced different, incompatible, frames.

 A dictionary ID is a locally unique ID that a decoder can use to verify it is using the right dictionary\. By default, zstd will create a 4\-bytes random number ID\. It\'s possible to give a precise number instead\. Short numbers have an advantage : an ID < 256 will only need 1 byte in the compressed frame header, and an ID < 65536 will only need 2 bytes\. This compares favorably to 4 bytes default\. However, it\'s up to the dictionary manager to not assign twice the same ID to 2 different dictionaries\.
