String compression on windows

General Usage

There appears to be a bug in Unishox. I have a rather nasty string S (at the end of the post). The first time I tried to use Unishox to compress it, I got:

julia> Unishox.decompress(Unishox.compress(S))
ERROR: BoundsError: attempt to access 1218-element Vector{Int8} at index [1:2519]
Stacktrace:
 [1] throw_boundserror(A::Vector{Int8}, I::Tuple{UnitRange{Int64}})
   @ Base .\abstractarray.jl:651
 [2] checkbounds
   @ .\abstractarray.jl:616 [inlined]
 [3] getindex
   @ .\array.jl:807 [inlined]
 [4] decompress(s::String)
   @ Unishox C:\Users\rbuckalew\.julia\packages\Unishox\dahtN\src\Unishox.jl:40
 [5] top-level scope
   @ REPL[35]:1

After a restart, the next time I tried the same commands but my Julia session simply crashed.

Here is the string that led to this behavior:

julia> S
