1. A method to facilitate enhanced resource file compression comprising: in a computing system, ordering a set of resource strings in a resource file to produce an ordered set of resource strings in the resource file, wherein each of the ordered set of resource strings comprises a set of characters, and wherein a lower byte of each of the set of characters comprises an initial quantity of bits; and in the computing system, reducing a size of the resource file by, for any resource string of the ordered set of resource strings that qualifies for bit-level compression, at least: defining a dictionary specific to the resource string to include one or more characters of the set of characters in the resource string; and for each character of the set of characters in the resource string, encoding the lower byte of the character in the resource file in a subsequent quantity of bits that is less than the initial quantity of bits and that represents a position of the character in either the dictionary or in a range of characters not included in the dictionary.
